Brew Toon If Dreams Come True
By Brew Toon · UK
A limited-edition 0.5% lager from Peterhead’s Brew Toon: “A crisp, clean alcohol-free lager brewed with classic German hop varieties”, with “a delicate floral bitterness”, one shop 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 If Dreams Come True?
Brew Toon is a family-owned microbrewery and café bar in Peterhead, Aberdeenshire, opened in 2017 by the Bowden family on the site of an old brewery. The shops sell two of its alcohol-free beers, both 0.5% lagers: Torr Lager AF and If Dreams Come True, a limited edition.
If Dreams Come True is a limited edition, The Alcohol Free Drinks Company says, and describes “A crisp, clean alcohol-free lager brewed with classic German hop varieties”, with “a delicate floral bitterness and a refreshing, easy-drinking finish”. The shops list Perle, Hersbrucker and Mittelfrüh hops and a lager yeast; one shop calls it an IPA, but the others, and the ingredients, point to a lager.
The shops list lager, pale, Munich and dextrin malts, torrified wheat and oats; one calls it gluten-free, but with wheat in that list we don’t repeat the claim, and Brew Toon doesn’t say. Nobody publishes its calories that we could find. We haven’t scored it yet.
