Default Which Beers (Imported or Domestic) Do NOT use FLUORIDATED Water for Brewing?

I'm in the process of cutting out all fluoride-infused beverages I consume (and you should, too!). With the recent research going on about how absolutely POISONING fluoridated water can be for your body (primarily reducing IQs as much as 20 points), I want to keep on drinking beer, but since the majority of them (at least domestic brewers) simply only use fluoridated tap water, I wanted some help from you guys to find out which beers either use REVERSE OSMOSIS WATER FILTRATION, or even WELL WATER in their brews. Hopefully someone can help.And I don't want to hear any "fluoride doesn't hurt" nonsense. Those answers will not be tolerated, and I'll give you negative points!! The facts on fluoride are out there, and if you haven't privied yourself, look it up!

almost all beer uses filtered wateras for specifics where they get it from, other than coors (rockies) they usually don't say.as for HOW they filter, its likely they hold it as a trade secret and don't tell you. they almost certainly DON'T use tap water (usually fluoridated) straight though, since it also is chlorinated and can reduce the performance of the yeast.You might want to consider brewing your own beer... its actually fairly easy and you will know EXACTLY whats in it.

I agree that brewers use highly filtered water. It is possible they use a reverse osmosis system but not for the water supply. Since brewers require a specific mineral content for their product processing they first filter and then add specific minerals. This is only if the water is not what they require.FLUORIDATED Water is done my municipal water district in the USA (not all) to aid with dental health.http://www.waterindustry.org/New%20Projects/fluoride.htmhttp://www.litalee.com/shopexd.asp?id=175You can rule out most European beers.http://www.becomehealthynow.com/php/article/water/447/http://mysite.verizon.net/focused2win/id6.htmlYeah both chlorine and flourine are bad for yeast health.

The water is filtered and the fluoride is removed before the brewing process begins.They filter down to 1 micron.Some beers that have chemicals added during the brewing process are filtered a second time to remove chemicals,solids and yeast from the brewing process.The filter system I've seen is about 20 feet long and contains about 40 2inch thick by 24 inch diameter filters that are removed as they become dirty.

Rest assured, they aren't using fluoridated water. It would kill the yeast thereby rendering the whole beer making process dead. Unless you contact a beer company directly, you can't really find much information about it--other than rumors and conjecture.I would contact any company you intend on supporting.
