Alcohol-Free Queer Brewing Bold AF Pale Ale
By Queer Brewing · UK
Queer Brewing’s 0.5% core-range alcohol-free pale ale, which Beer Today calls Bold. The East London brewery closed on 31 July 2026.
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
Not in stock at Dry Drinker or Wise Bartender when we checked in October 2026.

The story behind Bold AF
Queer Brewing described itself as “The UK’s first queer and trans-owned brewery, making queer beers and beer queer since 2019.” It was founded by the beer writer Lily Waite-Marsden, the brewery says; Des de Moor dates its first brewing to 2018. It brewed with other breweries before building its own brewery in Leyton, East London, which first sold its own beer in March 2025, Des de Moor says. It closed on 31 July 2026, so this beer may now be hard to find.
Bold was its 0.5% core-range alcohol-free pale ale, Beer Today reported in January 2026; we haven’t found a description of how it tastes. Fat Gay Vegan wrote that “All beers from Queer Brewing are vegan suitable!”
Since 2024 the brewery had given 10p from every pint and can sold to LGBTQ+ charities, it says. The full story is on our Queer Brewing hub.
