Arbor New Horizons AF
By Arbor Ales · UK
Arbor’s alcohol-free pale ale, 0.5%, in 568ml pint cans: “Gluten Free 0.5% ABV pale ale with Azacca, Citra, Ekuanot & Mosaic hops”, unfiltered and unfined, the Bristol brewery says.
At 0.5% ABV, this isn’t alcohol-free under UK guidance, which keeps the term for 0.05% or less. We list it with alcohol-free beers, as UK shops do. How UK labels work

What is New Horizons AF?
Arbor Ales is an independent brewery in Easton, Bristol, brewing since 2007; it says it’s one of the only UK breweries packaging its beers in pint cans. New Horizons AF is its only alcohol-free beer now; an earlier one, Wish You Were Beer, which Alcohol Change UK called Arbor’s first, is no longer on its site.
Arbor describes New Horizons AF as a gluten-free pale ale with Azacca, Citra, Ekuanot and Mosaic hops, unfiltered and unfined, and says it’s vegan. It makes its gluten-free beers with barley malt and oats, then uses an enzyme to bring the gluten below 20ppm, it says. The Alcohol Free Co describes citrus peel, tropical fruit, soft berries and light pine.
