NA Beers

For an NA beer, I think Clausthaler is not bad. Not sure if it's available in your area, so apologies in advance if it isn't. Neumarkter Shankbier is OK and you might want to see if there are other "Schankbiers" in the German section of your local spot. Schankbier is not non-alcoholic, but it is reduced alcohol (Neumarkter, for example, is 2.9% according to their website).

 

Clausthaler is a good start, probably the best Non-Alcoholic Pils-Style. I can only recommend non-alcoholic Weißbier, the difference in taste is not too big, and that's a beer that still tastes quite good without alcohol...
Cheers!

 

Frankly I've never found any NA or even LA worth wasting my time over.It just doesn't seem to work unless you are happy to drink tasteless gnat's pee.And I've tried so many over the years.Fruit juice is actually quite pleasant you know and that's what I go for in a no-alcohol situation.

 

I have a friend who drinks Buckler and Kaliber. I have not tried them but he says they are pretty good. Another that gets decent reviews is Erdinger.

 

As Mark Twain said, "The man who called it 'near beer' wasn't a very good judge of distance."

 

NA Weissbier is usually pretty tolerable, i think Erdinger is the only one in the US though.

 

I tend to prefer Barq's or maybe A&W.

 

I hate soda, but can drink Reed's Premium Ginger Beer.

 

Kaliber is pretty good but too expensive for a NA beer...aren't they all?

 

Clausthaler Golden Amber. There is a reason it is the # 1 NA beer on BA.

 

Sprecher brewery makes a root beer that is awesome! I just had some yesterday.

 

Hi. I am new over here.So i dont know where to post this msg.
I am planning to open a store were we will sale NA beers from USA and Europe. have to begin with some samples but it has been kind of hard to find online stores to buy some of those beers and I need them to be shipped to Miami area.

Any ideas ?

 

I have just started drinking NA beer for health reasons. To date I have tried nine different varieties and Clausthaler Classic is the best by a long shot. It's the only one that actually tastes like a real beer. I would like to try their others, particularly the Amber, but I doubt i will find it.

The problem for me, living in Toronto, is getting hold of it. After contacting the distributor (in BC), I found that there are only three small grocery chains that stock it close by and none in the city. The closest store is a 40 minute drive away. Fortunately, they seem to stock a lot so I will not have to go there too often.

It seems difficult to get any decent NA beer in Ontario. Seems like a conspiracy to me! I believe there is at least one (German) bar in Toronto that serves it, but I do not go to bars often.

 

No booze I cannot drink it, I do drink for the buzz and taste.

Oh-Boy-A​

 

Stay the hell away from this:

 

Is something around 3% ABV doable for you? Not sure if you've seen Anchor Small Beer around in Florida. It's not amazing, but I personally like it better than the consensus score.

I originally wanted to quote the standard light beers with their ABV that most bars offer, that was stupid on my part because you already know that. I'm assuming the question is focused on when you're playing a venue as opposed to just visiting as a patron?

 

My wife loves beer but can't drink it anymore. Clausthaler is by far her favorite N/A.
