Minus The Hangover

This episode, Christophe & Pete shine a light on the crazy mess of acronyms, industry short-hand and confusing No & Low Alcohol drinks jargon - plus tasting reviews of indie brewery Brulo’s Lust For Life IPA, Stowford Press’s (or is it Westons’?) Low Alcohol Cider, and from Sweden Kopparberg’s Gin & Lemonade (or is it Strawberry & Lime?) ‘flavored drink’. Confused? You will be - but not as much as Chris…

Christophe & Pete discuss how NoLo drinks went from the dark, dire days of Kaliber to the innovative and booming phenomenon we see today - plus tasting reviews of our first NoLo red wine McGuigan Zero Shiraz, “Posh Tonic” Fever-Tree, and one of the UK’s biggest-selling NoLo lagers, Lucky Saint.

Join Christophe & Pete as they “pop the cork” on one of the truly BIG NoLo questions: Why oh why do no and low alcohol drinks cost so much? Plus tasting reviews of global mega-brand Guinness 0.0, the quintessentially-English Thatchers Zero cider, and the fresh & funky Hip Pop Cherry & Blackberry CBD Kombucha.
