Altid Frisk

Denmark·Alcohol-Free IPA
Tap to rate

An alcohol-free IPA that explodes with hops, brewed from the most aromatic hop varieties: sharp bitterness, fresh and full, with the counterplay of several malt types made from barley, oats and wheat. It is brewed at the organic farm brewery in Herslev, just outside Roskilde.

◎ Appearance

A pale golden hue with light amber undertones, clear and bright throughout. The head forms quickly and clings persistently to the glass, leaving delicate lacing on each sip. Carbonation is lively and visible, creating a fine bead that sustains well.

◌ Aroma

The nose opens with pronounced citrus notes—grapefruit and orange zest dominate—followed by herbal and piney hop character typical of quality Edelhopfen varieties. Beneath the hop intensity lies a subtle malt foundation of grain, oats, and a whisper of wheat, grounding the aromatic profile without overwhelming the aromatic hops.

◐ Taste

The palate arrives crisp and full-bodied despite the low alcohol content, with sharp bitterness at the front balanced by grainy, cereal-like malt sweetness. Citrus and herbal hop flavours develop across the mid-palate, while the wheat and oat additions create a smooth, rounded mouthfeel. The bitterness persists cleanly without harshness.

Tulip glass

The curved shape concentrates hop aromas and supports a thick head. Essential for aromatic ales and IPAs where the nose is half the experience.
