Coral Sem Álcool

Tap to rate

Alcohol-free Coral with a medium body, a bitterness like that of beers with alcohol and a light “cooked” aroma. It was launched in 2003 in a pale and a Tónica version. Brewed from barley malt, unmalted corn and hops at 7.2 °P, it stays below 0.5% ABV. It comes from a Madeira brewery that dates its beer-making heritage to 1872.

Tasting Notes

AI-generated sensory profile for Coral Sem Álcool

◎ Appearance

Pale straw-yellow in the glass, presenting excellent clarity despite the alcohol-free format. A modest white head forms on the pour and disperses steadily, leaving intermittent lacing. The carbonation is visible and lively, typical of a well-conditioned lager.

◌ Aroma

The nose displays a light, cooked grain character with subtle malty undertones. Noble hop notes emerge gently, providing a restrained floral and herbal counterpoint. The overall profile is clean and restrained, without the fruity esters or yeast character that would distract from its crisp orientation.

◐ Taste

Entry is clean and malty, with a bready sweetness balancing the foreground. Mid-palate develops a pronounced and well-integrated bitterness (22 IBU) that holds without becoming harsh, accompanied by toasty malt layers. The finish is crisp and refreshing, leaving a dry bitter impression without lingering sweetness.
