Excellent non-alc from Cloudwater. Nice pale yellow Beer with citrus and tropical notes. B'day beer in the city center of Cardiff.

Almost done with dry Jan! Good beer though.

Correcte sans plus

En god sommarig ipa som presterar bra för att vara alk fri, citrus toner som blommar fint, humlen och malten som fyller upp som ljuva toner i bakgrunden men tyvärr blir den lite platt där efter men som helhet ganska god

I'm hopeful of this alcohol free brew as it's made by the Mancunian masters Cloudwater. Pale, hazy and yellow, which is a good sign already. Very lovely with a hard pour. On the nose is light and bright hoppiness you'd expect from a pale ale. Smells like Nelson Sauvin or Mosaic but I don't know as I can't find mention of hops used on the can. My initial reaction is the body, it has one! First AF brew I've had with oaty body. It's juicy indeed, I'm still getting Mosaic but don't hold me to that! It tastes better which each sip, and has a dry wheaty finish which does remind me of other AF brews unfortunately. There's always an element of lacking, an oddness. That said, this brew has body and decent flavour. I'm getting citra tang now, quite persistent and accumulative. It's the best AF craft beer I've had to date that is for sure. You could be tricked into thinking this is a normal brew, you might not guess it's 0.5%, or at least wouldn't be certain. It's a pleasure to drink and the taste builds from a pale into an IPA, justifying it's classification. This beer in a taproom when everyone else is on the real booze would be ideal, as you really wouldn't be missing out that much with this beer. Of course it doesn't hit or satisfy like a proper Cloudwater IPA, but saying that, this gives the impression it is a proper Cloudwater IPA!
