Good offering. One of the rare occasions recently where I wanted more than 1 (or 2). Easy drinking, malty body, some sharp hop character. No offer flavors. Good option for a warm evening.

Pretty good taste on this one almost forgot I was drinking a NA beer...almost. If you have to go the NA route this is a lot better the original Clausthaler. cheers

Very malty. This is the best low/non-alcohol beer I have ever tasted. Nice tan head, Amber color.

Well, this is the last style I haven't reviewed yet, and not surprised at all. Gonna review this as expecting for an NA beer.

Pours a decent fizzy 1 finger head that fades at a med pace, mild sticky lacing, semi clear but tons of sediment floating in the iced tea brown color.

Nose, speaking of iced tea, is a lot like it, an herbal mild brown tea, with big toasty grainy straw pilsner malts, husked malt, a little sweet sugar, raw bread sweetness notes, grassy floral hops, reminds me of a kvass in a way.

Taste is more of the same, you can really tell there's no real fermentation to it, a sweet sugar flavor mixed with toasty grainy malts, husky grain, straw, some sweet bread dough, etc, with brown sugar and a little caramel note, but obvious all the raw sugar is there with no fermentation. HOps are pretty strong, fairly bitter with a grassy slight earthy and touch fruity flavors. Finish is a bit sticky sweet, more bitterness kicking in, herbal grassy hops again.

Mouth is med bod, decent carb.

Overall as expected for NA beer it had all the raw sugar like tasting a beer before it goes into the fermenter, but not too sweet thankfully, nice malt character for the most part but some not so pleasant notes, hops were surprisingly decent.
