Alcohol-Free Beer
Does life still make sense when the spirits lose their spirit? For a long time we thought it wouldn’t. But reality proved different and although alcohol is still very popular, the alcohol free alternatives gain space in supermarkets.

Can we do without the gentle fog in our brain that lifts the spirits and what alternative does alcohol free variants offer? In the world of alcohol free wine and spirits there is still a long way to go, but in the realm of beer we have seen something happening that seems to make alcohol no longer a key ingredient. And isn’t Januari the month in which we all, at least, try to lead better lives?
Sander Nederveen, one of the founders of Oedipus beers will come by to tell us all about the mysteries of alcohol free beers.
About Aromathéque
Every month olfactory artist Frank Bloem curates a program where experts, artists, designers and scientists shift our perspectives on what we eat, drink, touch, inhale, secrete and smell. These so called "lower senses" are not only placed lower in our body but also were considered through history as lesser, more banal and not sophisticated. We think differently. Starting from a simple theme with a thought provoking question, we go on a journey and inviting people from different disciplines to discover the world that lies behind everyday phenomena.
