Lost Pier Brewing is promoting its 0.5% ABV Nitro Stout for the winter season, offering a Brighton-brewed option for drinkers looking for a lower-alcohol dark beer.
The stout comes in 440ml cans containing a nitrogen widget, designed to produce the cascading pour and creamy head associated with nitro beers.
The brewery describes chocolate and roasted-malt flavours with a smooth finish. Those are the producer’s tasting notes, rather than a Pub Social tasting verdict.
Co-founder Dan Gale said the aim was to retain the flavour and texture people expect from stout while brewing at a much lower alcohol strength.
The beer has also drawn attention from judges at the World Alcohol Free Awards.
With Christmas and January approaching, the release adds another independently brewed choice for venues considering their lower-alcohol offer. It contains 0.5% alcohol by volume, a useful detail for customers comparing products rather than relying on a broad category label.
