Ramon

Belgium·Alcohol-Free Pale Ale
Tap to rate

Ramon is the brewery's alcohol-free beer, introduced in 2019 at 0.3 percent. Instead of removing alcohol afterwards, the brewery ferments it with a special yeast that produces hardly any. Hallertau, Galaxy and Simcoe hops shape the aroma: the nose is fresh and fruity with citrus to the fore, joined by passion fruit and a herbal touch. The palate is light and crisp, and a mild bitterness closes it off.

◐ Taste

Entry is light and crisp on the palate with a delicate malt sweetness. The mid-palate develops hop-driven fruity notes that echo the nose, while a mild, measured bitterness emerges in the finish to provide structure without overwhelming the low alcohol context.
