Whether bleeding heart or staunchly red, most people agree there's nothing wrong with going green. Sure, we might be able to argue the science behind global warming, but eco-minded products aren't going to harm anybody (unless you've stumbled upon some crazy conspiracy theory I haven't heard about.) So if some brewers want to join the fray of environmentally friendly foodstuffs, I say relax, grab an organic beer and try what the other 364 days of the year call a green beer.What actually makes a beer "green" is a subject of some debate. Planet Green states, "There are a few ways a beer can be considered green: It can be brewed via environmentally friendly processes, or made with green ingredients like pesticide and chemical-free organic barley and hops." Also important to consider are packaging and shipping. (Planet Green suggest choosing glass and local micro-breweries, respectively.)
Since minimizing fossil fuel usage goes into the eco-equation, drinking regional brews becomes all that more important if you want to be as green as possible. Therefore, Planet Green is suggesting green beers (such as Orlio, pictured here) by region starting with the East Coast. I'm sure other areas are to follow (though they don't say when).
As an unrecommened alternative, if you're seeking a less eco-friendly way of "getting as green as possible," try drinking about 20 of any beer in one sitting (toilet bowl not included).

In fact, there is a joke that states a typical seven-course St. Paddy's dinner contains a six-pack and a potato. 
No special process is involved in producing this St. Patrick's Day novelty drink. Simply add 5-6
drops of green food coloring to your beer and gently stir. Go for a bright color because a yellow-ish green is off
putting no matter how fast you plan to down your drink. It is also best to go with lighter ales as opposed to a dark
stout, like Guinness. To get a green color out of a Guinness, you would have to add enough food coloring to turn your
teeth green when you take a sip. There are many other
