Description
A refreshing, light-colored beer with mild bitterness, dominated by citrus and tropical fruit notes. This recipe provides a base for designing non-alcoholic beers (alc. < 0.5% vol.). The malt quantity can be slightly adjusted depending on the actual brewhouse efficiency achieved in your brewery. The hop variety can also be replaced depending on the desired aroma profile.

Mashing temperature
Step 1: Mashing
Mash-in and follow the profile below:
Mash in at 78°C
Rest for 30 min at 78°C
Once mashing is complete, lauter and sparge with water at 78°C.
Step 2: Boiling
Boil for 60 min.
Hop addition 1: At the beginning of the boil, add 50 g of Citra.
Perform a whirlpool to remove the trub.
Important: lower the pH to 4.2 (or even lower) before fermentation — or perform a “kettle souring.”
Total evap 6–8% | Batch size 100L | OG 5oP | Efficiency 75% |
Step 3: Fermentation and Maturation
Cool the wort to 20°C and pitch the yeast.
Allow fermentation at 20°C for 48 to 60 hours maximum!
Then quickly lower the temperature to 2°C. This will limit the risk of contamination.
For dry hopping, add 300 g of Citra, leave for 48 hours, then remove the hops. A temperature of 2°C is not optimal for dry hopping, but in this case it helps prevent hop creep.
Adjust the pH to reach 4.0–3.6.
Let rest for 3 days at 2°C. Remove the yeast and hop residues.
| Attenuation | 13–17% | FG | 4.15–4.35oP |
Step 4: Cold Aging and Packaging
Keep the beer for 2 days at 2°C, remove the remaining yeast, and bottle the beer.
Since the beer still contains a high amount of residual fermentable sugars at the end of fermentation, it is mandatory to pasteurize the beer after bottling (between 80 and 120 PU).
