With many nonalcoholic beers—especially those of years past—one of the major things lacking was the texture and mouthfeel of a more traditional beer. But the science and brewing practice have come a long way, and there are a variety of ways to make adjustments that make that NA beer taste like, well, beer.
In the full, 91-minute webinar—packed with practical advice and technical tips—experts from Breakside in Portland, Oregon, and Berkeley Yeast discuss the nuances of brewing nonalcoholic beer.
The comprehensive session covers the process from recipe formulation to shelf-stable product, via malt selection, mashing techniques, hop utilization, and critical considerations for food safety.
Moderated by Jamie Bogner, Berkeley's Anthony Bledsoe and Tim Sciascia dig into the details of NA brewing with Breakside cofounder and brewmaster Ben Edmunds. Along the way, they discuss yeast, fermentation, and technical challenges, such as maintaining product stability through pasteurization and pH management. They also delve into innovative practices for enhancing flavor and body, helping to make nonalcoholic beers more enjoyable and commercially viable. This informative session also includes a Q&A segment addressing practical brewing concerns.
Other topics covered include:
- using maltose-negative yeast
- recipe targets
- hot-side and cold-side processes

And more.
