Never bought it, never will. I don't understand people sometimes.

Apparently their market is recovering alcoholics that want to feel like they're holding a beer can when they're out with friends.

Non-alcoholic beer exists and is available in cans. They even figured out how to make it taste like the "real" thing.

As someone who doesn't drink alcohol anymore but still loves the taste of beer, I highly recommend it!

What brand(s) comes closest to tasting good, in your experience?

[–] Telodzrum@lemmy.world 2 points 8 months ago

Athletic Company is good. People like the Heineken one. I don't drink those, though. I like a nice Hoplark or a nicer sparkling water (like Liquid Death) when I'm at an event where alcohol is prominent.

I have no personal experience but I've heard people say that Heineken 0.0 is a good one

A lot of the ones I drink are only available in Denmark, but the Dutch Bavaria and the German Perlenbacher make non-alcoholic beers that taste great and (especially in the case of Perlenbacher) are actually cheap too!

Of the more pricey ones, Italian Peroni and Danish Mikkeler also have some delicious non-alcoholic ones.

There's tons of others too, especially if you (unlike me) don't mind a moderately to very hoppy taste. Those are just off the top of my head 🙂
