Belgian Balance : La Brasserie Bruxelloise qui Révolutionne les Bières sans Alcool

Implanted at Beerstorming on chaussée d’Alsemberg in Saint-Gilles, the small structure, called Belgian Balance, already sells its cans in several grocery stores, and bars like Python in Schaerbeek and BrewDog near Central Station.

The Mineral Tour attracts Belgians, but the purchase of non-alcoholic drinks explodes throughout the year: “A spectacular increase”

“We were disappointed with the offer of non-alcoholic beers on the market. We said we had to create a specific product. The market is constantly evolving, and many people are turning their backs on beer. Before, no one took non-alcoholic beers seriously, but that excludes many people who don’t want or can’t consume alcohol. ” Unlike other industrial beers, alcohol is not removed afterwards. “We use a special yeast, which comes from the cacti in the deserts of Arizona, and which produces the aromas of the beer by limiting the alcohol.”

In the end, the beer has a 0.5 ° rate. ” A rate that can be found in everyday life foods, like an overripe banana. “
