New year, new beer!

It’s here! Our first low alcohol beer is launched this week! Ready to help our beer fans and discerning drinkers get through Dry January, Tryanuary, or even the latest national lockdown.

Highly refreshing Northern Light 0.5% ABV is a crisp and citrusy pale in 330ml bottles. It’s the brainchild of Saltaire’s new development brewer Rob Cooke, who previously worked at Brewdog developing its beer range. Rob says of this latest creation: “It’s been great to join the Saltaire team. The guys here produce some cracking beers, and have a lot of brewing experience, but not in low alcohol beer. I’ve been able to share my experience of brewing these kinds of beers, and I’m really chuffed with this one. It’s a really pleasing, single-hopped Citra beer, and at 0.5% ABV we can all enjoy as many as we like!”

From the taste tests we’ve done among ourselves – let’s face it, it’s one of the bonuses of working at a brewery – we think we’ll be enjoying quite a few of these, and not just for Dry January.

With drinkers increasingly looking for tasty, low alcohol alternatives to their favourite tipples, Saltaire’s sales director Nick Helliwell said: “I’m so excited to add this beer to our range and, having tasted it, I really think many no and low alcohol beer drinkers will be delighted to give this a try. I also hope all our Saltaire beer fans give it go too – it’ll make a refreshing change, and give them a great choice when wanting to keep their alcohol consumption low.”
