Singapore is pushing the boundaries of sustainability with NEWBrew, a craft beer made from recycled sewage water.

Developed by Singapore’s national water agency, PUB, in collaboration with local brewery Brewerkz, the beer uses NEWater—the city-state’s high-purity recycled water—as its main ingredient. The goal? To promote water conservation while proving that sustainable solutions can be both practical and palatable.

While the idea of drinking beer brewed from recycled wastewater may raise eyebrows, experts assure that the purification process meets some of the world’s highest water safety standards.

The result is a crisp, smooth golden ale that has been well-received by consumers. As climate change and population growth put increasing pressure on global water supplies, Singapore’s innovative approach highlights how technology and creativity can transform wastewater into a valuable resource—one sip at a time.
