BrewDog delivers low ABV with new Cold Beer

BrewDog delivers low ABV with new Cold Beer

This summer, BrewDog is cooling down the beer aisle with the launch of new Cold Beer (3.4 per cent ABV), recognising the growing requirement for low-ABV beer, as consumers continue to moderate.

A 3.4 per cent ABV Crisp, Cold, Lager, Cold Beer uses historic brewing techniques from the Kolsch style, fermenting the beer with an ale yeast but at the lower lager temperature, hence the term "Cold Beer". This process adds additional flavour from the ale yeast to the beer, delivering a higher quality tasting product whilst being able to deliver a more sessionable strength brew.


“As shoppers continue to monitor their alcohol consumption, we have identified a need for a low abv beer, that not only delivers a more sessionable pint, but with quality our number one priority, also provides the great taste that BrewDog is known for and a liquid that we can be proud of," Lauren Carrol, Chief Marketing Officer, at BrewDog PLC.

“Additionally, with consumers spending 18 per cent more on FMCG items vs 2021, it is no surprise that price is a key factor driving store choice and promotional spend is at its highest level for four years , as they continue to feel the financial pressure and look for options to reduce the cost of their grocery shop. Offering lower-abv products that meet the government’s new duty level is just one way to deliver value back to shoppers who still want to participate but are cash conscious.

“Often this means taste is compromised, but we believe in providing value for money and it is therefore the responsibility of suppliers to offer customers and consumers great quality products, something we pride ourselves on at BrewDog, and believe we have delivered again through the launch of Cold Beer.”

Available in Booker in 10 x 440ml (RSP £9.00, launching at £7.99 in NP3).

Gnaw ‘new-stalgia’: pud-themed Chocolate Spoons and flavoured choc bars

Tapping into “new-stalgia” (an anticipated hot food trend in 2025), Gnaw has been working tirelessly to rethink Great British puddings by creating a number of “Hug in a Mug” classics (Crème Brulée, Bakewell Tart, Sticky Toffee Pud) in conjunction with an impressive “pudfolio” of dessert-flavoured bars: New York Cheesecake, Christmas Pudding, Banoffee Pie and Sticky Toffee Pudding.

Desserts may prove divisive. For many the last course will always be a fitting finale to a great meal spent with friends of family, enticing comfort food that offers a nostalgic peek into happy custard drenched, ice cream topped memories from yesteryear. For others, desserts are an unwitting dalliance with guilt-filled soft sponges, buttery pastry, seductively sweet fillings, crumbly toppings, sticky sauces …
