That would be impressive if they were only using grain within a certain close distance to the distillery. This will only be a green solution if the distillery is situated close to their grain source since the US is so large and most products are transported by road.

I think this would qualify as a green solution, since it does help in reducing the emission of fossil fuels during transportation.
