Rink ice from Tampa Bay Lightning's Amalie Arena used in limited-edition beer

[NTorch]

Coors Light has used ice collected from the rink at Amalie Arena during the Stanley Cup Final to brew "Champions Ice," a limited-edition beer. It will be available on tap in Tampa-area bars and in 32-ounce collectable crowlers starting the week of July 12 -- including on the day of the Lightning's Stanley Cup parade.

To get the ice for the brewing process, Coors used the shavings collected by the Lightning Ice Crew in Game 1 of the Stanley Cup Final against the Montreal Canadiens. It put the shavings in stainless steel hydro-flasks and shipped them overnight to its brewery in Golden, Colorado

Not that Coors Light is worth drinking, but I do have significant HaKaras HaTov for MolsonCoors.

Maybe the dirt, sweat, and blood will finally give it some taste.

How is this food safe? Or is it a gimmick where they took a speck of ice from the center of a block and put added it to a barrel of beer for the kitch factor?

I'm assuming it goes through a bunch of purification processes before it actually gets used in the beer.

Wait, so the only difference to regular Coors Light is instead of it being made with water, they're freezing it first?
