This is annoying. I understand that some 0.0 ‘beers’ are not brewed, but many ARE brewed to strength, and the alcohol taken out in order to retain as much of the beer flavours as possible, and essentially make a good alcohol-free beer.
Other methods of producing alcohol-free beers tend to result in terrible off-flavours. Many large breweries de-alcoholise their beers now. Northern Monk has just spent a huge amount on equipment for doing this, and makes all the beers for non-alcohol breweries such as Mash Gang.
Proving the method is likely difficult, and I know some radlers will not be produced this way, but to avoid argument perhaps all alcohol-free beers should be rateable?
There’s also a Cerne Abbas 5 on Untappd. That’s 4.7%.
If anything the 6 should be renamed Cnut (6%) - but I just took a look at the shop that I bought the beer from and they have it down as 6%. However I also note that on Untappd people have photos of differnt ABV bottles under different beers so confusion reigns there as well. I will see what the brewery say. It does appear that the colour of letters on the bottle seems to differ depending on the ABV. However isn’t the jump from 5.5 to 6 less than required to have two separate beers.
Nope, different beers. The Motive collab has different hops and was released 3 months before. The Fantom series beers from Medvedgrad are pretty much always different recipes just named after styles, and separated by numbers. Bit silly they didn’t call this one a Fantom NE Pale Ale 2, but I guess they felt that the lack of collab noted on the label is enough to be treated as a new sub-series.
Can I make a tag request here? Whey.
In seeing whether I could create one, I noticed that the tag “A - CREATE/DELETE/ADD/EDIT TAG - PLEASE READ” appears to have 15 beers in it.
This beer has a typo in it (should be “Spilled”) and looks like it belongs in Urban South HTX rather than the Louisiana Urban South. There are a few (8?) other Spilled beers listed under the Louisiana brewery as well.
