Description
Founded in Spring 2019 as Coast Beer Co by James Brown with the desire to create quality, hop forward alcohol free craft beer for the modern world.
We launched with a simple promise, to only make beer that we love. It's all about taste, quality and creativity. Using the finest ingredients, innovative yeast cultures and modern brewing techniques to create beers that are always alcohol free, vegan and never compromise on taste.
As an independent brewery we're free to experiment, push the boundaries and that’s exactly what we do. With new unique offerings available each year, we pride ourselves on the diversity and range of beer that we produce.
Changed name to BRULO Autumn 2021.
Beers were originally 0.0% but changed over to 0.5% early 2025 for “a much better quality beer, less sweet and more balanced”.

Pours clear blonde. Scent is malty, but seemingly not very fresh. Mildly recognizable as NA. Taste is very malty, bit sweetish. Not too bad, but simple. Malty, not overly fresh. A little bitter.

Medium sweet fruity and malty with some nice citrus and light tropical fruity notes, some nice resinous hoppy bitterness, piney balanced bitter hoppy finish. As usual another great AF brew from Brulo.

Part of my award for visiting 12 pubs during the CAMRA Winter Warmer Wander. It was only when I studied the can when I arrived home that I realised it was 0.0% alcohol. I really can't think of a redeeming feature of this "beer", I have given it one star only because it was cold and wet.

Can at the 40th of M&S. Pulpy orange juice pour with a quickly dissipating head. Nose is tropical fruit juice, mainly mango and apricot. Taste is also a fruit juice, I get mango, apricot upfront with some citric hints in the background. Pleasantly salty too. Pretty thick, pulpy, with a soft carbo. Practically a fruit juice, but rather tasty at that.

Can at the 40th of M&S. Pale yellowish golden pour with a white head. Nose is light worty notes and pretty decent hops as well. Taste slightly sweetish upfront but turns into more bitter almost instantly with yet again a fairly pronounced hop character. The most frequent problem I've seen in NA IPAs is when the brewers try to mask the worty sweetness with way too much hops. Fortunately this one is not like that, it's fairly well balanced if a bit too thin - which is not that surprising at all.

Can at home. Pours somewhat hazy yellow with a white head. Nose is moderately sweet, somewhat bitterish fruity, grassy hops. Taste is sweetish with moderate bitterness. It opens with a fairly hoppy touch, then it kinda fades and there’s a little bit of that NA emptiness, but nothin too bad. Closes with a surprisingly intense hoppy finish, has a light, but not empty body and soft carbonation. Very decent NA brew.

Can at home. Extremely pale golden/yellow pour with a thin, quickly disappearing white head. Nose is light citruses, delicate fruity notey, grassy touches, a hint of sweetness. Taste opens with a touch of sweetness but it almost immediately gives its space for a dry, somewhat hoppy bitterness, it’s grassy, slightly citric, green. Thin, obviously, but not empty, the carbonation is soft to average. Pretty decent, especially for what it is.

Can at home. Pours black with a tan head. Nose is slightly worty, otherwise coffeeish, cacao malts with a citric hoppy touch. Taste is roasted malts, earthy notes, some worty sweetness, but not too much. The body is pretty decent, doesnt feel thin at all. The finish is roasty, citric, somewhat worty. NA black IPA, anyone? Great non alc stuff by all means.

Can from Drankenhandel Leiden. As Brulo Sabro IPA. Bright citrussy aroma with bubblegum, pineapple, some lemon, lightly perfumed. Flavour is moderate bitter with a little sweetness. Light body. Nicely aromatic and pretty refreshing, weak-bodied ofcourse but pretty good for a non-alc beer.
