With more and more options hitting the market, it can be overwhelming to find the best alcohol-free beer for your taste buds. Luckily, we've done the research for you and compiled a list of some of the top non alcoholic beers that are sure to satisfy even the most discerning beer connoisseur.

How Is Alcohol Free Beer Made?

Before we get to our list, let’s explore a little more about what non alcohol beer actually is. 

So, how is alcohol-free beer made? Let's break it down. The brewing process for non-alcoholic beer is quite similar to traditional beer, with one key difference - the alcohol is removed or reduced to less than 0.5% ABV. 

The first step in making non alcoholic beer is brewing a normal beer with malted barley, water, hops, and yeast. The fermentation process begins to create alcohol, just like in traditional beer brewing. However, when the alcohol content reaches a desired level, the beer is subjected to a process to remove the alcohol.

There are several methods to remove alcohol from beer, including vacuum distillation, reverse osmosis, and heating. With the most common method being vacuum distillation, where the beer is heated in a vacuum to lower the boiling point of alcohol, allowing it to evaporate off without affecting the flavour of the beer.

On the other hand, traditional beer brewing involves allowing the yeast to ferment the sugars in the malted barley, creating alcohol as a byproduct. The alcohol content is typically much higher in traditional beer, ranging from 4% to 12% ABV, depending on the style.

So, what sets non alcoholic beer apart from traditional beer? Besides the obvious difference in alcohol content, non alcoholic beer often has a lighter body and a slightly sweeter taste due to the absence of alcohol. It is a great option for those looking to enjoy the flavour of beer without the intoxicating effects.
