Pasteurization

Cooking the microbes out of your beer isn’t the only way to achieve micro-stabilization today. Mushroom-based additives, pressures higher than the deepest oceans, and the texture of dragonfly wings offer alternatives to traditional pasteurization.

We know it destroys microorganisms, but does it destroy flavor profiles, too? In your quest for quality and stability, pasteurization can do more than prevent infection.

Nonalcoholic beer is a growing category, and some smaller breweries are getting into that space. However, doing it properly may entail much more study, planning, and compliance than you expect.
