Nitrogen-Infused Beers

The Samuel Adams Nitro Project is Replacing Carbonated CO2 in Brew Blends

— January 27, 2016 — Lifestyle
Samuel Adams is revolutionizing the beer brewing industry with a line of nitrogen-infused beer blends that creatively substitutes the traditional carbonated ingredient of carbon dioxide with nitrogen. The collection, entitled Samuel Adams Nitro Project, will feature three new blends all containing nitrogen as one of the main ingredients.

Nitrogen offers a lighter texture to carbonated drinks, making it an ideal companion to beer. While carbon dioxide opts for larger bubbles and a more noticeable carbonated taste, nitrogen is odorless, transparent and filled with incredibly minuscule bubble particles that give the beer a creamier texture. To complement the addition of nitrogen, Samuel Adams has added more hops to the Nitro Project IPA to balance the flavor. The new drink collection includes the Nitroo IPA, Nitro White Ale and the flavored Nitro Coffee Stout.
Trend Themes
1. Nitrogen-infused Beverages - The use of nitrogen in beverages as a substitute for carbonation presents an opportunity for creating creamier textures and unique flavor profiles.
2. Revolution in Beer Brewing - The introduction of nitrogen-infused beers by Samuel Adams is disrupting the traditional use of carbon dioxide in brewing, offering beer enthusiasts a new sensory experience.
3. Enhanced Beer Texture - By utilizing nitrogen instead of carbon dioxide, breweries can create beers with a lighter, smoother texture that appeal to consumers looking for a different mouthfeel in their brews.
Industry Implications
1. Craft Beer - Craft breweries can leverage nitrogen infusion to differentiate their offerings and appeal to beer enthusiasts seeking unique and enhanced beer drinking experiences.
2. Beverage Manufacturing - Beverage manufacturers can explore the use of nitrogen in their product lines to create innovative and novel beverages with improved textures and flavor profiles.
3. Bar and Pub Industry - Bars and pubs can adopt nitrogen-infused beers to enhance their drink menus and entice patrons with an exciting and distinctive drinking experience.
