A unique Czech lager that blends mature and fresh batches to create a uniquely hazy, Budvar Nefiltr is unfiltered lager sold exclusively on draught, with the rebrand reflecting Budvar’s Czech origins, continuing the brewery’s mission to build the reputation of the Czech Republic as one of the world’s great beer cultures. Curtin noted that flavours provide a way to recruit new drinkers into the category and to the brand. Accolade Wines Europe marketing director Tom Smith said : ​“Historically, non-alcoholic wine has suffered from negative taste and quality perceptions – Hardys Zero is set to change all that.

DropZone Brewery has expanded into the spirits market with the launch of limited edition an eight-year-old Barbados rum, Valkyrie Rum (65% ABV), honouring the men and women who have served in the armed forces.Rounding off this weeks new products list is another gin, Edinburgh Gin's new flavour, Orange and Basil (40% ABV). DECEM has been three years in the making, working tirelessly to find the most interesting combinations of fruits, herbs and botanicals to blend genuinely different liquids that hold complex flavours yet are easy to drink with the simplest mixers. We’re proud to launch the first three spirits in the DECEM range and give drinkers lighter alternatives to be enjoyed all day or all night.” Edinburgh Gin's Orange and Basil variant joins the distillers other flavoured offerings including Classic Gin, Rhubarb & Ginger, Gooseberry & Elderflower and Lemon & Jasmine. Orange & Basil Gin Fizz​ Ingredients​ With so many of our community becoming more conscious of their nutrition, diet and alcohol intake, we’re incredibly excited to enter this new category. We’ve combined our love of (arguably) the best water in the world, fresh from Yorkshire with our love for hops to create this sparkling hop water. No alcohol, no sugar, no calories, with the many health benefits and world of flavours hops bring.” The gin brand recently added another lemon-flavoured variant to its portfolio: Bombay Sapphire Premier Cru Murcian Lemon.

Furthermore, the name Nefiltr also highlights the beer’s signature, unfiltered nature, which is key in creating its hazy, gold colour, and deep, crisp flavour.

(NB: If using granulated sugar dissolve first before adding ice and soda) Ivano Tonutti, Bombay Sapphire Master of Botanicals, said: “The Mediterranean lemons are harvested at their perfect ripeness and truly showcase the very best flavours that nature has to offer. By harvesting them early in the season, their lively citrus notes shine through in the gin, delivering a vibrant, sophisticated taste.” Budweiser Budvar, the national brewery of the Czech Republic, has launched Budvar Nefiltr (4% ABV), a rebrand of its unfiltered and unpasteurised lager, previously known as Kraüsened.

Billy Wright has been heavily embedded in the food and drink industry for many years, having cooked all over the world, from supper clubs in Borough Market, to restaurant takeovers in Greece, to food demonstrations in the moat of the Tower of London, he now brings his passion for tastes and flavours to the reduced alcohol drinks market. Having launched last year with a range of military-themed beers tasked with enriching the community of current and former service people, DropZone's Valkyrie Rum, distilled using the finest molasses and matured in ex-bourbon and American oak cask, will continue this theme and see all profits committed to military mental health charities. Award-winning Leeds based craft beer brewery Northern Monk has entered the soft drinks category with an alcohol and calorie free sparkling water. Offering quality no-alcohol wines with lower sugar, Accolade Wines has first-to-market access to de-alcoholising technology, Zero Tech X, which heats the wine and provides a gentler process to remove alcohol, meaning Hardys Zero wines retain more of the aroma, body and flavour of full-strength wine. Curtin added: “The creation of Bombay Citron Pressé gave us the opportunity to allow gin fans to enjoy a taste of the familiar, but with a twist, offering a naturally refreshing taste alternative to the traditional G&T.”

Shake the remaining ingredients over ice and strain into glass. Garnish with mint leaf and serve. Brož said: “Brewing Budvar Nefiltr takes skill and balance. It’s up to us to add just the right amount of fresh beer to a batch that’s finished maturing in our brewery cellars. Too much, and the second fermentation will be too fierce and will overpower the richness of the matured batch. Too little, and it won’t create the delicate carbonation we’re after.”
