Not “less than 0.5% alcohol by volume” but 0.0! That’s the credo of Steinecker’s new method for brewing alcohol-free beer. This is achieved thanks to a new perfect match: the combination of the proven Poseidon dynamic fermentation unit with crabtree-negative yeasts.
Although it is a brand-new method, several breweries have already tested it – successfully! One of them is the Belgian brewery Van Honsebrouck. Its Kasteel Rouge 0.0 is being served here at the Krones stand at BrauBeviale. And there are two things that immediately stand out when tasting the beer. First: it is a Belgian Kriek beer with nice cherry flavours. And secondly (and most important): it tastes like the original one containing alcohol!
If you want to taste it yourself, hurry up! It is the last day of BrauBeviale in Nuremberg and you’ll find Krones, Steinecker and Van Honsebrouck’s Kasteel Rouge 0.0 in Hall 7A.
