Pee .. Beer .. Recycle

A company is now making Beer from urine and other sewage waste water. I think this would be good for the space station as they do something similar but only get back the water.

I believe that there is a couple of brands that have been doing this for years: Budweiser or Fix

This is great news for me. I have been working on a beer vending Porta-John for outdoor music festivals such as Bonnaroo, and this could be the breakthrough I've been looking for. Since a sizable part of the audience seems to only be there to drink beer and piss, I decided to combine the two. The working theory is the old "you don't buy beer, you just rent it". It will join my other festival invention, the Patchouli Mist Tent. It cools and deodorizes at the same time.
