Days Brewing - Alcohol Free (0.0%) Lager - 12 x 330ml Bottles – Low Calories, Vegan, Natural Ingredients, Locally Sourced Scottish Water and Malt Barley, Clean & Crisp Lager

Product Information

The malt remains forward as we taste, still quite bready, with some slight sweetness to it. We get some stone fruit drifting into the flavour profile in the form of apricot, as well as some slight floral and citrus notes. The carbonation is quite tight and the mouthfeel is pretty good, though on the verge of wateriness. We get a sweet malty finish to the drink.

Hint: Temperature Control. Whilst the yeast that comes with the brew can will ferment effectively at 18°C - 32°C, we recommend a brew temperature of 21°C-27°C for optimum results. Some techniques for controlling temperature are; hot box (box with a low wattage light globe attached inside), heat pad, heat belt, immersion heater, place FV inside in a temperature controlled area, insulate FV, place in disused fridge, drape wet towels over FV.

Mashing does not need to be appreciably different for lagers than for ales, apart from the fact that non-flaked adjuncts such as corn or rice may require a separate cereal mash to gelatinize the starches prior to being added to the main mash of base and specialty malts. The saccharification temperature of the mash largely controls the degree of attenuation and the resulting body of the beer. Choose a higher temperature rest (156–158 °F/69–70 °C) for sweeter, fuller-bodied beers, or a lower temperature (148–150 °F/64–65 °C) for drier, less full beer styles.

For example, wine that says "12% ABV" or "alcohol volume 12%" means 12% of the volume of that drink is pure alcohol. Days Brewing’s ‘double fermentation’ technique does produce the taste of beer but we still get the flavours and aromas of unfermented wort in the drink, though not on the same level as other malty AF beers such as St Peter’s Without. Certainly not as much character as other hoppier lagers, if you like your beers malty but otherwise light then this should keep you happy. Days LagerThe most important factor in lager brewing is the yeast. Lager strains have evolved to become adapted to lower fermentation temperatures, typically 45–55 °F (7–13 °C), which results in slower activity and more neutral flavor profiles with fewer fruity esters. There are some differences in attenuation and flavor among lager strains (some finish more dry and crisp, while others are a little more sweet and malty) but they tend to be more similar to each other than the wide diversity of ale strains. The bottling yeast does not have to be a lager strain. The purpose of the additional yeast is merely to ferment the priming sugar and produce carbonation. A good neutral ale strain will do a fine job and dried yeast is very convenient for this purpose.

Days Lager AF Beer Review | Free Beer

ABV is a measure of the amount of pure alcohol as a percentage of the total volume of liquid in a drink. For example, a pint of strong lager contains 3 units of alcohol, whereas the same volume of lower-strength lager has just over 2 units. Svart/Hvit from @nogneo . Treacle, coffee, roasted malts and vanilla on the nose, restrained bitterness with more roasted grains, coffee and a slight caramel sweetness as we taste. Lovely hefty body. Could easily pass for a full-fat stout free-beer.co.uk/nogne-o-svar… #alcoholfree @FreeBeer_UK - Sep 5 For 5 gallons (19 L) of a moderate gravity lager, a starter size of 3 quarts (2.8 L) is about the minimum. Larger volumes are recommended for larger batch sizes and bigger beers. This may mean stepping up the original starter a second time with fresh wort. Removed from the primary yeast sediment and allowed to chill and age, the beer should clear and sulfury and other various extraneous aromas and flavors dissipate until it achieves that clean character for which lagers are known. As the saying goes, time heals many wounds. A number of the haze problems sometimes associated with ales are conspicuously absent from most lagers, mainly due to the time spent lagering.

After about 6 days at 21°C or 4 days at 27°C (higher temperatures shorten the ferment time) test the SG with a hydrometer. Test the SG each day. Final Gravity (FG) is reached once SG is stable 2 days in a row. Homebrewers may wonder if there is still enough healthy yeast remaining to carbonate the beer. In terms of numbers, the answer is usually yes. Even seemingly crystal clear unfiltered beer contains a considerable amount of yeast. However, it may not be as healthy as desired, especially in higher gravity beers. Those who wish to hedge their bets may want to pitch additional yeast at bottling. I recommend this if the original gravity is 1.070 or higher. Hint: If you are unsure of the quantities of hot and cold water required try filling the FV with hot and cold water without the ingredients to get a feel for what is needed to achieve 21°C-27°C. Note: The yeast supplied with Coopers European Lager is a pure lager strain and behaves differently to other yeasts in this series. One unit equals 10ml or 8g of pure alcohol, which is around the amount of alcohol the average adult can process in an hour.

The early cautioning can, however, lead to the notion that lagers are so difficult to brew that only the most advanced brewers should attempt them. In reality, this is far from the truth. If you like the clean quality of lager styles, there is no reason not to begin brewing them. It’s the malt, Walt After 12 to 24 hours, you will see indications that fermentation is underway such as foam beginning to occur and the brew becoming cloudy. At this stage make sure the temperature is consistent and leave your brew to ferment. Important: Even if the temperature is outside recommended range but within the range of 18°C-32°C (64°F-90°F) add the yeast. At this point prompt addition of yeast is more important than ideal temperature. Cheers Mind pale ale from @fierceandnoble . Bready malts, peppery spice and grapefruit citrus on the nose. Bitterness when we taste, grapefruit citrus and earthy pine, this carries on through the drink. Some tropical and stone fruit manages to peek through free-beer.co.uk/fierce-noble… @FreeBeer_UK - Aug 11 Note: The yeast supplied with 86 Days Pilsner is a pure lager strain and behaves differently to other yeasts in this series.Some lager yeast strains produce sulfur compounds — particularly hydrogen sulfide (H2S) — during fermentation, resulting in somewhat unpleasant odors that are disturbing to the unsuspecting. Don’t be too concerned about these, although you may wish to inform others with whom you share your living space. With time and proper conditioning, these will dissipate and disappear entirely from the finished beer. Lifted High Protein Lager from Lifted Brewing. Surprisingly clear considering the protein in it - 10g per can! Bready malts and stone fruits on the nose, and a malty taste which grows into a citrus bitterness. The body has more heft than your usual lager free-beer.co.uk/lifted-lager… @FreeBeer_UK - Jul 28 Unilever product advertising is mainly through mainstream TV channels. Out of the products advertised so far at least 50% (over 850) of ads have been run on TV, while print media comes second with 496 ads. Unilever also utilizes social media platforms for advertisement. Recall the rule of thumb about the lager time frame being double of that for ales. If your ales typically finish fermenting in 7–10 days, 2–3 weeks is a good estimate for a lager. But, as with all fermentations, let the hydrometer or refractometer be the deciding factor rather than the calendar. In general, consider fermentation nearly finished when the reading is within a point or two of the target final specific gravity. Give it a rest Using units is a simpler way of representing a drink's alcohol content – usually expressed by the standard measure alcohol by volume (ABV).
