US could face ANOTHER beer shortage after extinct Mississippi volcano contaminated the country's largest CO2 reserve
[Daily Mail, where America gets its news] - The price of carbon dioxide - a vital component for beer production - has risen fourfold, Axios reported on Monday
- CO2 has been in short supply for several years as the pandemic forced people to drink from home: CO2 is needed in beer and sodas
- Now raw gas from a mine has seeped into the Jackson Dome, an extinct volcano in Mississippi that provides much of the country's supply of CO2
- The contamination at the site, operated since 1977, has reduced the amount of food-grade CO2 available
