By definition, you can't have alcohol-free beer.

Thanks for sharing.
Out of interest what would you call it?

Re: first time I ever thought about it
Alcohol free beer still contains alcohol

Why?
It's suitable for alcoholics or people who have to drive or can't drink alcohol but like the taste.

Rheinbacher Alcohol free beer from Aldi isn't bad.
I'm on abstinence from alcohol and tried this last week.
That said I prefer a blood orange San Pelligrino.

I dont think alcoholics are their target market somehow.

Re: first time I ever thought about it
I wouldn’t buy alcohol free beer but I did try a couple of cans of Guinness 0.0
I was given them by a pop up promotional stand on the Hayes a few months ago
Tasted pretty good to be fair 👍

Re: first time I ever thought about it
I think I mentioned this before, I've had a 12 pack of Heineken Zero in my fridge for months. Possibly from last year. I drank one of them. It tasted weird and malty. If I'm not drinking alcohol, I'd rather drink soda water than fake beer. It's weird, I actually drink them like beer. I'll go through 5 or 6 a night.

Ive had the odd on when out for a meal with family and im driving. Thats the only time is really served a purpose. The Peroni 0.0% is actually not bad taste wise, not too disimilair to the alcohol version.
Like you, the one time I bought a four pack for the house, as I was having a period off the booze, I ended up guzzling them. Pointless really.

It's not suitable for alcoholics
That being said despite being a normal beer fan I do enjoy the zero / low alc stuff and there's been massive improvements in that market in recent years

Giving the zero alcohol stuff to a alcoholic is like giving a free bet to a gambling addict. Sooner rather than later they it will lead to tears.

100% agree.
Of the ones I've tried, I enjoyed Heineken and also Punk IPA.
Alongside when driving, it's a good alternative when you're really looking to make a big cut on calories but still enjoy a "beer" in the sunshine

Re: first time I ever thought about it
Do you have Spindrift in the UK?
https://www.amazon.com/Spindrift-Spa...61804131&psc=1
I go through 24 of these a week. The lemon one is only 3 calories. And if you do want alcohol you can add vodka to it. That's what my Mrs does. I try to steer clear of that stuff though. Vodka is the mind killer.
