What is Implosion Lager?
To Øl was founded in 2010 by Tore Gynther and Tobias Emil Jensen, school friends who started brewing in their Copenhagen school’s kitchen; Jensen left in 2017. It brewed at other breweries for years, mostly De Proefbrouwerij in Belgium, before buying an old factory in Svinninge, western Zealand, in 2019, where it now brews. It calls itself independently owned. Its alcohol-free beers are the Implosion family, six of them in Denmark. In the UK you can find the original Implosion, at 0.3%, and Implosion Lager, at 0.5%.
To Øl calls Implosion Lager “astonishingly crisp, delivering a clean and refreshing finish”, hopped with Tradition and Spalter Select, and brewed with malted barley and maltodextrin. The shops describe a Danish craft lager with crisp malt, floral hops and a clean, dry finish.
To Øl’s nutrition panel gives 22 kcal and 1.7g of sugars per 100ml, about 73 kcal a can. It was sold out at every UK shop we checked. We haven’t scored it yet.
