Barsham Brewery Launches Stacked AF Their First Alcohol Free Beer

FAKENHAM, U.K. - Jan. 2, 2025 - PRLog -- Norfolk craft brewery, Barsham Brewery has launched its first ever alcohol-free beer, Stacked AF.

Stacked AF is a 0.3% Pale Ale and forms part of the brewery's Stackyard keg range.
The beer is the brewery's first product in the low and no-alcohol category and was developed by brewer, Hamish McCellan, with support from the team at Crisp Maltings. Barsham Brewery managing director Tom Trivedi said: "We're ecstatic to finally bring our new alcohol-free pale ale to the market. Hamish and the team have been working extremely hard with Crisp to develop this outstanding beer. We can't wait for all of our existing and new customers to try it. The feedback so far has been great.

This beer has been a long time in the making as we had to be certain we could make a beer that we felt met our own quality standards, not just a launch a beer to try and catch the wave."

Hamish McCellan  explained: "Stacked AF is a crisp, delicate yet flavoursome Pale Ale without the fat. It was important to us that our Stacked AF was an authentic Pale Ale and reflects the high-quality of the other beers that we brew. This required a great deal of testing and experimenting to get the balance just right and also the reimagining of much of the brewing process, and we are thrilled with the results."

Head Brewer, Andy Mitchell said "This brew is simply a work of genius. We are very proud of our 'Norfolk born and brewed heritage' in the brewery so it's great that we have been able to make an alcohol-free using barley that is grown on our own land."

Stacked AF is available in 330ml cans and 30 litre kegs that pubs and bars can order either direct from the brewery or via a variety of distribution channels. Customers can also try Stacked AF on the taps of the Barsham Brewery Taproom or pick up a 12 pack from the on-site shop or website.
