Dark and low


On the continuing theme of low/no alcohol beers I had this one on Saturday evening, called "Call of the Void" it's part of a series of beers made for January by Siren and Mash Gang. This one is an amazing drink for the ABV (0.5%), apparently Siren threw everything at this brew, Tonka bean, liquorice root, cacao nibs, coffee, vanilla (you get the idea) The result is a pleasing flavoursome, layered dark beer that has classic milk/coffee stout flavours with a decent creamy mouthfeel due to being dosed with Nitrogen rather than CO2. 

I hadn't tried alcohol free beer for a long, long time, it always used to be awful, I would now contend that things have changed for the better, it's great to have choice and variety in this segment.
