Alchohol free beer...

Ok as most do I like a tipple in the week so I’ve decided that instead of the usual stell/desperado type beers that if your not careful will get you nicked on the morning after the night before... I’ve gone to the dark side and have the odd non alchoholic beverage.

My choice has been becks blue and the Bavaria types and weirdly enough they taste ok

Question for you that indulge which is your favourite and what in your experience tastes the most like the real thing?

I wouldn't bother. I'd have to go tee-total for the night. Soft drinks, lemonade probably. Maybe the bar could have a non-alc cocktail for a treat.

Non alc beers are like decaf coffee, what's the flipping point?

Becks blue has got better over the years. Usrd to taste rank. I like Radler. Only 2% and nice as a summer drink.

Because you like the taste of beer/cider but just don't want the alcohol?

Saying that there's no point to decaf coffee would only be true if you didn't like the taste of coffee. I can see why you'd find decaf or alcohol free beer pointless if you thought they tasted disgusting - but in that case, why drink them in the first point?

Im happy to drink any non alcholic beer, they taste fine to me although im not keen on non alcholic wine.

I drink decaf coffee too because caffiene makes me ill. It tastes the same anyway

I suppose i like wanting the full package, I like the taste of beer, I like beer a lot in fact, and mentioned above is a radler, my favourite summer drink and I try to make it around 1%. But I like a beer buzz with my friends if I'm out.

Also, some would say I like coffee more than oxygen, and also, it's the caffeine hit that comes with it.

I'm an all or nothing type of guy.

Forget the beer Op. try non alcoholic wines, there's some lovely ones out there, they might be a good idea if your looking for quality. Beers character comes a lot from the yeast used, which it's bi-product is alcohol.

See, I like the taste of beer but not the 'beer buzz'. So non alcoholic beer is great.

Do you like the taste better than a regular beer?

They taste better than some beers/ciders and not as nice as others?

I’m the same I love the beer taste but since splitting with the ex a year or so ago I kinda hit the drink a bit too much on a daily basis... I mean literally no less than 2 fairly strong big bottled beers... so I guess I was kind of an alchoholic as not going a day without it.. so I thought instead of just completely stopping I’d go for zero alchohol stuff which I’ve been doing with great success lol.... until the weekend of corse and I get totally smashed

Dishwater tastes better than some beers. (Just my opinion). I've not had a non-alcoholic beer that I'd be happy to drink more than one at a time.

Like anything. It's personal taste isnt it?

I mean I'm rarely in a situation where I'd have more than one beer anyway.

The other good thing about non-alcoholic beers is that it's a nice slow drink and if you don't tell people that it's non alcoholic then they don't know. So it stops d*unk people pestering you to get d*unk with them, because they think you have an alcoholic beer in your hand.

It's kind of like when you go out for lunch with your friends. If you order a salad nobody thinks anything of it. If you tell them you're trying to lose weight and *then* have a salad, they're convinced you're not enjoying yourself.

Perception. Peer pressure probably got us drinking/smoking (and trying other stuff) in the first place.

After 18 bottles everyone can't believe your drinking everyone under the table. .
