Abstract

It is intended to provide a processing method for producing beer-like low-alcoholic beverage by using usual beer and/or low-malt beer without using any special systems other than those commonly employed in producing beer. Beer and/or low-malt beer obtained by the process commonly employed in producing beer are diluted with carbonated water to lower the alcoholic concentration to less than 1%. After adding additives capable of imparting visual and tasty characteristics thereto, beer-like low-alcoholic beverage can be obtained.
