Fantastic Lager

A 0.0% citrus-forward lager from Manchester's Burton Road Brewing Co, vegan-friendly, with a zesty nose and a bitter finish.

About This Drink

Burton Road Brewing is a small Manchester brewery that started out in the alcoholic craft beer space before adding a proper AF line. Fantastic is their 0.0% lager entry — the name is deliberately upbeat and the can carries exclusive artwork from Oskar with a K as part of a partnership with the Withington Walls community street art project. A percentage of sales goes to the project. The beer is billed as light and citrusy, with a fresh zesty character and a bitterness that comes through on the finish rather than dominating the palate. It's the kind of lager built for easy drinking — clean, not overly complex, carbonated enough to feel lively without being aggressive. It's vegan-friendly and brewed to 0.0%. Burton Road are worth watching as a brewery that takes both the alcoholic and AF sides of their range seriously, though Fantastic is a relatively recent addition and distribution is still mainly through specialist AF retailers rather than supermarket shelves.
