2 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 8/20
UPDATED: MAY 26, 2008 Finally got a chance to rate a low alcohol beer, courtesy of a pregnant wife at a memorial day party. Clear light amber in color. This smells and tastes like carbonated unferemented wort. Not really too much else to say...although this was pretty bad the real travesty is that I’ve had beers that were fermented that have been worse...
2.3 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 9/20
Clear golden body with a small white head. Light graininess and honey malts with light fruity hints. Sweet grain and honey malt flavor, light fruitiness, very close to a light unfermented wort. Medium body with moderately high carbonation. Really not that bad, but I’m used to drinking what ends up in the hydrometer.
1.5 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 1/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 1/5 OVERALL 5/20
Pretty good pineapple, wheat, and caramel nose, but weak. Clear gold, thin head. Slightly sour, very weak lemon and grain flavor. Cardboard finish. I read somewhere that this was like a Guiness without the alcohol, so I expected something that reselmbed a stout. Drinkable.
1.9 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 6/20
Bottle 355ml
Appearance: Clean pink scented amber with light creamy top.2-
Nose :Sweet fruity , herbal tea like with caramel and hibiscus. Pleasant and refreshing.
Flavor/Palate : Thin , sharp body is quiet contrast to aroma. Acidic bread like flavour follows. Unfinished semi raw bread like with husky grainy hints. To thin on substance to be meaningful.
1.9 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 7/20
Pours a gray/brown/ginger ale color with as much evanescent head as could be expected in a NA. Smells a bit like a box of Cracker Jack. Tastes like Cracker Jack soaked in sweet tea with lemon. Aftertaste is of tin and acid. Not totaly horrible if you like carmel corn, I guess. Just drink water, it’s cheaper. Rating boosted as I tried to remind myself that this is not supposed to be beer
4.1 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20
A truly great beer... has a delicious flavour for a reduced alcohol beer .. the foam level is awesome, lower on the lacing ... flavour is good, even fooled a friend thinking this was a regular beer ... wonderful on a warm day when alcohol is not an option!!
2.2 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 9/20
Golden pale yellow. Vegetable cardboard. Somewhat soda water with it’s good carbonation. Not bad for a 1% alky beer.
2.6 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 12/20
none of the disgustingness that usuallly goes with a non-alcohol beer, roasty malts, good after-taste, kind of filling
