Nocoholics Review
They brew this beer in a church. They named it after a nun. And somehow, it’s still one of the cheekiest beers we have ever tasted.
Jopen’s Nonnetje Hazy IPA is a non-alcoholic beer that flirts with blasphemy — not because it misbehaves, but because it tastes way too good for something this pure. This is a beer that whispers sweet fruity nothings into your ear, then glides down like a sermon delivered by someone who knows their way around hops.
It opens with bright aromas of grapefruit, citrus, and pine — the holy trinity of hazy IPAs. The taste is full-bodied and juicy, with a soft bitterness that lingers just long enough to say amen. It is lively, fresh, and leaves your palate feeling forgiven.
And that name? Nonnetje — a little nun. A nod to Jopen’s own brewery chapel, the Jopenkerk in Haarlem, where the brewing process now involves a lot less incense and a lot more dry hopping. It’s non-alcoholic, it’s brewed in a former house of worship, and it’s dressed in a can that looks halfway between liturgy and loungewear.
We’re not saying it’s a miracle. But if a nun offered us this in confession, we’d start sinning just to go back.
