Krombacher 0,0% Pils
Krombacher 0,0% Pils is a separate beer from the brewery's older alcohol-free Pils and goes all the way down to zero. Two methods are combined: fermentation is stopped early, and the remaining alcohol is then removed by gentle dealcoholisation. It pours golden and clear with a stable white head. The nose is grainy, with a cornflake-like cereal note and a light herbal touch. On the palate a noticeable malt sweetness leads, a fine hop bitterness follows, and the finish is lively and fairly dry.
Tasting Notes
AI-generated sensory profile for Krombacher 0,0% Pils
Serve well-chilled at 4–6°C for maximum crispness. A pilsner served too warm loses its defining snap.
The tall, narrow pilsner glass preserves carbonation and showcases the golden clarity that defines the style.
Drink fresh and cold. Pilsners do not improve with age — within 3 months of packaging is ideal.

What is a Alcohol-Free Pilsner?
