Bruery's Hottenroth!!

 

Clara.... 4.0%

Edit: Well the bottle says 4% at least.

 

Nailed it right off the bat.

Nice work.

Not exactly what you're asking for since I can't be specific, but while I was in Scotland I was more than impressed with the great beers that hovered between 3.8 to 4.2%. They've got a burgeoning craft beer scene, and the amount of flavor they pack into low alcohol real ales blew me away.

 

Tree House Brewing Eureka 3.9 percent. Just and awesome session beer. These guys are brewing some incredible beer. The town the brew in is fighting them. It's too bad. Just great people and great beer. The next hill farmstead.

 

The only thing under 4% I drink is tea or water or coffee.

 

^^^^ Then SaCKERZ9, you're missing out on some good beers. It's not a demeaning act to drink a beer below 4% ;-)

 

Darkstar Hophead and its variants
Crouch Vale Brewers Gold, Citra and their mild is good too iirc
Fyne Jarl , Rune and Pipers Gold

There's a lot of others that are good too that I forget the names of

And lot that are a bit dull and samey

 

Trinity brewing/ new Belgium ten minutes of pleasure.

 

The Bruery Hottenroth
Dupont Avril
Fremont 77 Select

 

Couldn't find one below 4.0 on my US beers consummed, though likely had many in the 70's & 80's when living in England. Never kept a note of them, was far more interested in jugging it up, as they say. Must make ammends the next time i'm across the pond.

I realize this doesn't help the OP one bit

 

pretty much all the Merdian Pint / Oliver Ale's collaborations, Oliver Dark Horse and Burial at Sea, and Mikkeller Drink In The Sun.

EDIT: oops, forgot Hottenroth! haven't had a chance to try more low ABV sours (well lower than 4%) that I haven't brewed on my own.

 

I just had this last night--what a great Berliner Weiss, and since it was only 3%, I didn't think twice about drinking the whole bomber on a Tuesday night.

 

both of these are 4%
Bitter Brewer
Schells Hefe
Schells Star of the North <4%

Honorable mention Gumballhead @4.8%

 

Hands down the best thirst quenching, hot weather beer I've head. Tart, refreshing. Awesome at a BBQ on a blazing day.

3.2% ABV

Peekskill's Simple Sour

Bear Republic Tartare

 

Banner American Ale from a small new outfit in northwestern MA...very tasty for a 3.4% beer and all of their beers are under 5%.

 

Off the shelf in my town, Deschutes River Ale.
