Jever fun alcohol-free
Alcohol-free Jever Fun is brewed by German brewers Jever. They have been around since 1848 and are well known for their popular pilsner beer, brewed under the strict ‘Reinheitsgebot law’; a law which says beer can only be made by using malted grain, water, yeast and hops.
Jever actually were one of the first breweries to create a mass-market alcohol-free German beer – all the way back in 1991 – and produced a sugar-free and alcohol-free pilsner beer called ‘Fun’. Unlike other brewers who halt the fermentation process early to create an alcohol-free beer, Jever removes the alcohol directly.
I’ve had quite a few decent alcohol-free German beers. The question is is Jever one of them? Well, you’ll just need to read the review below to find out.
Is Jever Fun any good?
Taste
This is a pretty decent and drinkable alcohol-free beer. For me its the taste of hops and sweet maltiness that dominate the overall flavour of Jever Fun. It has a decent body, not too thin, with good carbonation running through it making it a very refreshing beer to drink.
Aroma & Appearance
The aroma of Jever is certainly dominated by the hops which sparkle up the nose when you take a whiff. In the glass, it pours with a light amber colour and a thin foamy head.
Bonus points
This beer is going to appeal to a number of drinkers thanks to it having less than 0.5% alcohol content, zero sugar and suitable for vegans; note that it isn’t suitable for gluten-free drinkers. Availability-wise you can now get this from a number of online retailers and supermarkets.
