Meet Freestar - Award Winning Alcohol-Free Beer
Freestar Alcohol-Free Beer is the 2019 World Beer Award Winner! Freestar is a new generation of non-alcoholic beer. Whilst regular beer is made of hops, water, malted barley, and yeast, the guys from Freestar skip the yeast, which is what ferments into alcohol; that way they don’t have to remove it later. Instead, they blend it together with a banging mix of hand-selected natural ingredients to build up the flavour complexity. The result is a light & refreshing IPA style lager with a citrus edge! Freestar is also a Benefit Corporation which means that it has managed to meet the highest standards of social and environmental performance, as well as corporate governance and public transparency. We asked the founders of Freestar a few questions about this brand and how everything started.
