Alcohol-free beer
« on: February 20, 2018, 07:11:45 AM »

while I was in Germany, I noticed how alcohol-free beer was available everywhere and how it was marketed in the same way Gatorade is here.  I really did like the stuff, and I am not a beer drinker at all.

Nobody really drinks it here. I wonder why it's not popular.

Because it generally is so light that it has no taste.  I haven't had one that tastes any good.  I haven't tried them all, but have tried a couple when the opportunity presented itself.

I drink it.


Busch NA is the awesome. You have to understand, there's not a big selection out there. I drank me a six during the Super Bowl. :D

I wanted so much to find a good one when pregnant.  No go.

Someone needs to start a no alcohol microbrewery with insanely hoppy beer just for the pregnant folk.

The problem is that if you're used to the taste of regular beer and then go to NA beer, you'll find the taste, disappointing, at best.

I like it, sometimes drink it when I go out, though many restaurants don't carry Busch NA so I have to get O'doulski.
