Recommended Beer Glass: Use the Spiegelau Craft IPA Glass for enjoying this IPA, as Spiegelau is renowned for its excellence in crafting beer glassware. The glass features a unique design, starting with a narrower base that gradually widens and then narrows towards the rim. This specific design is purposefully created to elevate the hop aromas in an IPA.

WRCLW Bezalkoholowa IPA Review
Looks & Aroma
WRCLW Bezalkoholowa IPA pours a hazy yellow with almost no carbonation and a one-inch foam head. On the nose, we got aroma notes of grapefruit, pineapple, mango, and grass.
Taste
The taste features a malty backbone supported by notes of grapefruit, citrus, and tropical fruits. There is a slight hop bitterness with each sip.
The body is light-medium and slightly watery, while the mouthfeel is prickly from the lively carbonation (but not in a bad way). Lastly, the finish is dry but a little lackluster.
Verdict – Is WRCLW Bezalkoholowa IPA worth it?
WRCLW Bezalkoholowa IPA is a rather average craft non-alcoholic IPA. The hop aromas promised a hoppy beer, but the taste is a lot more subdued and thin than what the aroma promised. Overall, it is a light and refreshing IPA to enjoy, even if it did not wow us.
Where to Buy WRCLW Bezalkoholowa IPA
