How ABV Technology is Changing the Game in Non-Alcoholic Beverages
➤ Join us as we take a behind-the-scenes look at ABV Technology--the leader in NA beverage creation for breweries and wineries. ABV takes your alcoholic beverage and uses vacuum distillation to lower it to 0.5% ABV or less. This opens the door for brands to offer their most popular beverages as non-alcoholic versions--cost effectively and with little extra effort.
➤ In this video we taste test some NA beer direct from the source, learn about the crowdfunding campaign and take a peek at the new pasteurizer...

    They're a popular local brewery. One of the more IPA focused ones that distribute all over MN anf WI. However when I tried their golden NA (pale light lager), it had a weird wort taste to it? Don't exactly know what it was, could have been expired or just a one off. That's the thing - microbreweries somehow never seem to print "canning dates" ON THE BOX. Bauhaus comes in 6 packs without a box, so you need to awkwardly flip the pack to check the bottom of the cans for an expiration date, which is often never visible AND in old julian codec. Super frustrating and probably one of the reasons I stopped buying from certain local breweries. Great video nevertheless.

    It's nice that the non-alcoholic beverage market is expanding. Having said that however, diversity of options -- _Pils, Dunkel, Hefe, Bock, Duvel, Tripel, Quad, Saison, Scotch Dark, Scotch Heavy, English Brown, English Pale, Irish Amber, Pastry Stout, Brown Lager, Vienna Lager, Porter, Wild Ale, Lambic, etc_ -- are severely lacking in the US. I had to drive an hour to get to the biggest liquor store in town only to find a tiny section at the back, not even a single shelf, dedicated to NA beers of less than 8 brands total. Out of which only 3 types exist: Macro Blonde Lagers, Hoppy Ales, and Sours. If you enjoy one of these "trendy" types then good for you, but they were simply not for me even before I went sober. Weissbier from Weihenstephaner used to be my go-to but I now have to order it online which can be costly. So I opt for Clausthaler these days. Surprisingly good enough but given that it's the only one I actually enjoy out of the ones available to me, that's not saying much.
