Introducing the Padre Dam Pilsner

The Padre Dam Municipal Water District can now add craft beer to its list of services.

In a recent partnership with Ballast Point Brewing Company, The Padre Dam Pilsner has made its debut.

Featuring 'water from the toilet' the brew is handcrafted from recycled and purified water from the district's own Advanced Water Purification program, which was was recently recognized as the 2017 Recycled Water Agency of the year.

This is just the latest in the district's goal to provide clean, quality, recycled water to its residents. According to their website, the program hopes to supply approximately 25-30 percent of East County's current drinking water demands, reducing dependence of imported water, and diversifying the region's supply.

According to CEO, Allen Carlisle, "Using state-of-the-art technology to purify East County's recycled water, the East County Advanced Water Purification Program will create new, local, reliable, and sustainable drinking water supply...the end product is water so clean that it is near-distilled quality."
