Mönchshof Naturtrüb's Alkoholfrei

Germany·Alcohol-Free Lager
Tap to rate

Mönchshof Naturtrüb's Alkoholfrei has been on the market since 2014 and was conceived as a mild, unfiltered alternative to the more bitter, pils-led alcohol-free beers. The brewery credits a special brewing process for its full, rounded taste. It pours milky pale gold with a generous white head. The nose is grainy, recalling cornflakes and lightly sweetened popcorn with a little hop spice. On the palate it is lively and briefly tart before a soft cereal sweetness takes over, and grassy hops give the finish a light, clean bitterness.
