Great Lakes Brewery brings alternative fuel to Cleveland

Besides their Indians game buggy that runs on alternative fuel, and besides brewing their beer right there in the middle of the city--and taking people on tours of the place, and giving their meeting space to environmentally friendly and other nonprofit organizations for nothing--now our little local brewery GLBC has undertaken to outfit their delivery truck to run on the oil they use to cook their restaurant's french fries.

How cool is that? Kind to the environment, sensible re-use of their must-have supplies of oil, and a huge coup for their advertising. Some very smart people at the Great Lakes Brewing Company. Smart and savvy combination of being concerned for the world and offering a great product to help folks get through life's challenges. Happily, some of their brews make the best-dressed lists in cities across the U.S. (just saw a couple of them among the 200 on the board at Quenchers in the Logan Square area of Chicago).

Amen, GLBC. Read more about the used-oil-fuel-driven delivery truck here.
