How it tastes
The malty caramel base gives it more weight than a typical NA pilsner, and the naming quirks across markets (Dry-Hopped, Extra Herb, Amber) are worth knowing before you go shopping for it. At 0.0% ABV and 20 kcal per 100ml, it sits among the lowest-calorie options in the category.
Cascade hops dry-hopped into an NA beer is still a rare move, and it shows in the citrus finish.
- True 0.0% ABV
- Cascade dry-hopping gives a distinct citrus edge most NA lagers lack
- Full-bodied amber character rather than a thin, watery profile
- Naming varies by market (Dry-Hopped/Extra Herb internationally vs Amber in some US listings), which can cause confusion when shopping
- Only the Original pilsner from the Clausthaler range turned up confirmed on Saucey, not this specific dry-hopped/amber variant
Who it is for
Drinkers who want a fuller-bodied, more characterful NA option than a standard pilsner, with real hop presence.
