🌍 Japan · Alcohol-Free Lager · One of 42 Alcohol-Free Lagers in hopIQ

Asahi Super Dry 0.0 is the alcohol-free member of the Super Dry family and reached New Zealand in 2023. It is brewed as a full lager from barley malt, corn grits and starch plus hops, after which the alcohol is removed; natural flavours appear on the ingredient list. The beer pours straw yellow with a tight white head. A subtle fruity, malty nose leads to light bread, a hint of honey and corn, and a faint citrus edge. A delicate initial sweetness gives way to soft, lingering bitterness, a light body and a quick, clean finish.

The nose opens with subtle fruit notes layered beneath a soft maltiness. Light bread and a gentle honey sweetness emerge, accompanied by a faint corn character from the adjuncts. A delicate citrus edge rounds out the bouquet without dominating.
