The To Øl Implosion Lager
Implosion (n.): when everything collapses perfectly into place. This lager is the controlled demolition of your expectations of non-alcoholic beers. Malty backbone, herbal notes, and a crisp finish that makes 0.5% feel like a choice, not a compromise. Clean, balanced, and unapologetically Danish.
Aroma & Taste
The To Øl Implosion Lager opens with clean malt aromas complemented by subtle herbal and grassy hop notes that feel grounded and honest.
On the palate, it delivers a balanced malty sweetness with gentle biscuit notes, layered with herbal hop character and a touch of noble hop spice.
The finish is crisp and refreshing, leaving behind a clean, slightly dry aftertaste with lingering malt and herbal notes that invite another sip.
Story & Design
Two high school friends started To Øl as a gypsy brewery, using spare capacity at other breweries to craft innovative beers.
To Øl quickly made a name for itself with its creative and experimental brews, gaining recognition in the craft beer scene and entering Ratebeer's Top 100 list in 2012.
In 2019, the brand took a major step forward, acquiring a former ketchup factory in Western Zealand, Denmark, to create a state-of-the-art brewery and craft beverage hub.
Committed to reducing its environmental footprint, To Øl focuses on sustainable brewing practices, resource sourcing, and waste management, ensuring eco-friendly beer production.
The clean, minimalist packaging design with bright and contrasting colors instantly stands out, mirroring the brewery's progressive attitude toward beer.
Ingredients & Value
This lager showcases classic brewing fundamentals with a six-ingredient formula: water, barley malt for sweetness and body, wheat malt for texture, select hops for herbal character, and yeast for clean fermentation — no shortcuts, no compromises.
At just 73kcal and 5.6g sugar per serving, it's remarkably lighter than traditional lagers, and at €2.91 per 330ml, it provides exceptional value for Danish craft quality in the non-alcoholic space.

Verdict & Opinion
Implosion (n.): when everything collapses perfectly into place. Physics calls it catastrophic compression. Copenhagen calls it a Tuesday. To Øl calls it a lager.
Denmark has a word for everything cozy: hygge. They're also the happiest people on earth, which makes sense when you consider their strategy: simplify everything, add candles, drink good beer. The Implosion Lager is peak Danish — malty without trying too hard, herbal without being precious, refreshing without making a scene. Most non-alcoholic beers apologize for existing. This one just... exists. Confidently. Like a Dane on a bike in a snowstorm.
The malty backbone delivers gentle biscuit notes that ground the beer like rye bread grounds a proper smørrebrød. The herbal hops add noble spice without drama. The finish is clean, dry, and so Danish it probably owns a minimalist chair that costs €800 and is worth every cent. No excess. No fuss. Just a lager that knows what it is.
Copenhagen doesn't do unnecessary. No skyscrapers. Bikes everywhere. Lego blocks that do one thing perfectly. The Implosion Lager follows suit: stripped to essentials, executed with precision, priced at €2.91 like a reasonable pastry.
Hero status confirmed. When everything collapses perfectly into place, you get Danish engineering in a can. Copenhagen wins again.
