Summary

This study characterized microplastic contamination in commercial beer products from multiple countries, detecting particles in the majority of tested products. Brewing water quality was identified as the primary contamination source, with particle concentrations in finished beer correlating with local water supply microplastic concentrations rather than brewing process variables.
