There are lots of ways to create low alcohol beer, but many methods involve either changing the recipe or the way it is brewed, and this often alters the flavour. Adnams invested in a de-alcoholiser; a reverse osmosis plant which allows the team to brew Ghost Ship 4.5% and then take out the alcohol. It gave by far the best tasting beer. It allows us to brew and ferment as normal and then, at cold temperatures, remove the alcohol while leaving all the lovely flavours from fermentation in the beer. It's all very high tech, but what it does is allow Ghost Ship to sail away full of its original characteristics. So, you’ll still get to experience that famous citrus kick when occasion or preference dictates less alcohol.
