Zero IPA

An alcohol-free IPA from Devon's Otter Brewery, blending English and US hops for a citrus-edged, classically bitter pint.

About This Drink

Otter Brewery sits in Luppitt, near Honiton in Devon, named after the River Otter that runs nearby. They've been making handcrafted ales since 1990, and the Zero IPA is their foray into the alcohol-free market — a natural move for a brewery whose core range leans on the bitterness-first, hop-forward character that makes a traditional IPA worth drinking. The Zero IPA uses a blend of English and American hops, which keeps it grounded rather than tropical. You get citrus zest and grapefruit alongside a clean, classic bitterness that holds its own for a beer under 0.5%. It's not trying to be a hazy juice bomb; it's an honest IPA that happens to be low-alcohol. Reviewers who've tried it through Devon pubs and direct from the brewery consistently rate it highly for the category, particularly for its fuller feel compared to many AF alternatives. Comes in 500ml bottles as a case of 12. Worth ordering if you're after something balanced and unfussy rather than trend-chasing.
