Hi everyone, I've come seeking your wisdom.

I love brewing beers. Im also, apparently, irresponsible when it comes to alcohol consumption. So I decided thotmi wont have alcohol in my house anymore. But I also want to still brew, and enjoy my brew.

So, is there a good way of de-alcoholizing the brew after it fetments, such that the flavor wont be impacted, or will be minimally impacted?.

Thank you, oh wise Lemmy hive mind

I dunno about non-alcoholic homebrew beers, but I love me some Hops Water.

It is basically just sparkling water flavored with strong hops. Means that there are no malts in it. Tastes sort of like beer without tasting like watered down version of a proper beer. It's a bit hard to explain and I have no idea how to do it yourself, but might be a good and an easy option.

Thanks, I may thy this. I Saw a video where brewer made hops water, then added some of the wort to it with yeast to carbonate it. It sounds interesting.
