As much as there’s a plethora of alcohol-free beers available these days, breweries are still finding ways to stand out from the crowd. Seeker Brewing have achieved that by dropping the alcohol from a beer style that few think of when they think non-alc: red ale, Maxi Small Beer.
Initially, the beer came in at 1.0 percent ABV, but a bit of tinkering has seen them drop down to half that, and while it might be low in alcohol, it has well ... max flavour. There’s a blend of rich toffee and raisin, a touch of bitterness and a gentle citrus lift from the hops to ensure that if you are looking to avoid alcohol, you don’t need to avoid a tasty red ale.
