hopIQ found 10 beers with the same malty and dry character as Früh Kölsch Alkoholfrei. The alcohol-free version starts as a full Früh Kölsch: the same wort at 11.3 percent original gravity is top-fermented and fully matured before the alcohol is removed, since 2008 down to 0.0 percent. What remains is the grainy, cracker-like malt of the original with a light floral hop note on top. With almost no residual sugar left in the beer, it drinks lean and only faintly sweet, and finishes short, crisp and dry with a mild bitterness. Ranked by flavour match rather than popularity.
