    Been looking forward to this one since you mentioned it on the Pod! I've been having alcohol free beer through the week and I think I need to switch up to ones specifically made by none alcohol companies rather than alcohol free versions of lagers/ales! Cheers 🍻

      haven't done yt taste test vids but hate it when beers are chilled to the point that they numb your taste buds. whenever i have beer at home it's stored in the cupboard, never the fridge. the heating is never whacked up beyond 18 in the winter, so its not like a room temperature beer would be 'warm' just not chilly cold.

    It's great that this market has grown so much recently and there are more options than just Becks Blue these days. It definitely seems like the more successful AF beers are the more extreme fruity and hoppy flavours which some of the alcoholic ones can often taste non-alcoholic too. I'm surprised not to see the Guinness 0.0 in here which apparently is one of the most convincing alternatives, although I've not tried it. It's mad that AF beers are usually a similar price to the alcoholic beers even though they don't incur the same duty. I know that the beers where they remove the alcohol are more expensive to produce than boozy beers with the extra production process but the ones fully fermented to a low ABV shouldn't be really.

    Have you had the Asahi yet Robbie? What's your verdict? It's one of my favourite lagers so would be interesting to see how the low/no alcohol version compares. Like you've said before on the pod (can't remember if HH or Moon), some of the major players seem to be particularly lacking in their low/no offerings.

    Alcohol free beer is perfect for people who don’t drink alcohol but want to fit in especially British people has massive drinking culture and people tend to feel left out as they don’t drink. Have something like soft drinks make you stand out.

    I never drink alcohol because it makes my ADHD 10 times worse. Even after half a pint I feel myself getting bored and restless. I know non alcoholic beer makes most people turn their noses up and that's fine. If you like alcohol it makes sense that you would think it a terrible idea, but after quite a few years of just not drinking, I discovered through non alcoholic beer that I actually do like the taste of beer, but obviously not the effects, so I drink Guinness, Heineken, Stella Artois, Saint Etienne (Aldi), Budweiser zero sometimes (not my favourite), Erdinger, Birra Moretti and often an independent beer if I'm at a specialist pub/restaurant. To be honest, the niche stuff seems to be the nicest, but I don't really know why that ought to be the case.
