What is Alkoholfrei Hell?
Flötzinger is Rosenheim’s oldest brewery and its only remaining private one, it says, brewing under a right granted in 1543 and owned by the Steegmüller family. Its full-strength Hell has been a favourite for generations, it says; Alkoholfrei Hell is its alcohol-free Helles.
Flötzinger removes the alcohol gently, it says, and brews it from brewing water, barley malt, hops and hop extract, at 19 IBU. The Alcohol Free Co describes a clear straw-gold beer with bread dough, cracker and light honey malt, a subtle hop bitterness and a clean, dry finish.
Flötzinger’s shop gives 14 kcal per 100ml, with no sugars. More about the brewery, its Herbstfest tent and its other alcohol-free beers on our Flötzinger brewery page. We haven’t scored it yet.
