About the brewer
The story of Bavaria 0.0 takes us to Lieshout in Brabant. The Swinkels family has been brewing beer here with undiminished passion since 1680. As one of the oldest and largest family-owned breweries in the Netherlands, Bavaria has a rich history of pure craftsmanship and innovation. They even have their own unique spring for natural mineral water.
Decades ago, Bavaria was already a true pioneer in the field of non-alcoholic beer. Today, they continue to lead the way by continually investing in the very latest brewing techniques. With their state-of-the-art brewing facility, they prove that tradition and modern innovation go hand in hand.
The ultimate lager experience: refreshing, bitter, and malty
What immediately sets Bavaria 0.0 apart is that it foams, smells, and tastes just like a real pilsner. The secret lies in the state-of-the-art 0.0% brewing system developed specifically for this beer. This technological marvel is capable of removing the alcohol from the beer at extremely low temperatures. Because this process takes place at such low temperatures, as little as possible of the characteristic, fresh pilsner aroma and subtle malty flavor is “evaporated.”
Thanks to the use of traditional hops, the beer retains that recognizable and beloved pilsner bitterness in the finish. It’s a crystal-clear, golden-yellow beer with a thick head that tastes like a cozy Friday afternoon drink at any time of day.
