Pinkus Alkoholfrei

Brewed by Brauerei Pinkus Müller
Style: Low Alcohol
Münster, Nordrhein-Westfalen, Germany

The aroma is like so many low-alcohol beers - dominated by a weird sweet hoppyness with notes of brewmash. The color is a hazy light orange and it has an impressive head - for a non-alcoholic beer. The flavor is sweet with a light touch of malts and a lot of aroma-hops. It ends on a slight bitterness. The palate is totally missing. All in all a standard low-alcohol beer - nothing special here.

(Bottle 33 cl) Hazy, pale golden beer with a thick, rocky head - this actually look a bit like a Hefe. Has some very bready notes - rye bread that is. Weird sweetness and no biterness at all. The Pinkus guys really got this wrong. 200502

Bottle, <0.3%. Sweet and sickly tea aroma. Like a mash, but with more sweetness. Almost clear golden colour. Stable white head. The flavour is sweet, almost sugary. It does taste of malt, but not as if it was ever fermented.

Thick, creamy head. Strong citrus and worty aroma and flavor. Absolutely the best non-alcoholic lager I’ve ever had.

Bottle: A bit unclear, golden, big fluffy lacy white head; sweet grainy sour-doughy worty nose; light sweet flavour with the faintest illusions of bitterness, light bodied to thin as well; short sweet-bready finish. Sweet and monotonous......

(33cl bottle) Hazy, yellow colour with a medium-sized frothy white head. Sweet worty, grainy aroma, with herbal hops and notes of wet cardboard. Sweet flavour, light bodied with a moderate carbonation. Almost cloying worty taste; slim and sweet grainy finish. I couldn’t finish this one.

Slight unclear golden with off white head. Yeasty, grainy - sweet taste. Watery body - very thin. Rather horrible grainy corn taste!

Sour, sharp honeyish wort aroma. Golden, a lot of champagne bubbles, big fluffy head with lacing. Weird sugary wort flavor, not much hops. Very light body.
