Drink review – Maisel’s Weisse Alkoholfrei certainly lives up to its award-winning credentials. Full of flavour and character this is a real winner.
Maisel Weisse Alkoholfrei has quite the hereditary being produced by the Maisel brewer who goes back all the way to 1887 … so they certainly have had some time to perfect the taste.

Is Weisse Alkoholfrei any good?
Taste
This is certainly a tasty wheat beer, no doubts there. Full of a sweet hoppiness you expect from a traditional wheat beer. There is also the unexpected background taste of exotic fruits that give it a pleasant edge. Thankfully the balance of bitterness and sweetness is just right making this a great alcohol-free alternative. The only real grumble I had was that it was a tad too carbonated and given the size of the bottle easily filled me up.
Aroma & Appearance
Weisse Alkoholfrei had a lovely golden amber colour and when poured had one of the best heads of any alcohol-free beer we’ve seen. Similar to its taste there was a strong aroma of fruit and we picked out bananas and apricots.
Bonus points

In addition, it has low calories (well compared to the alcoholic varieties) and is vegan friendly.
