The alcohol is the only reason to choke down the horsepiss that is beer; 0 alcohol beer’s only consumer base are self-loathing masochists.
I love a good beer. Budweiser is not a good beer, and the thought of a zero version sounds even worse.
But there are great beers and even very good non alchoholic ones.
My issue is that beer is a lot of calories, particularly the good ones. Even the zero alcoholic ones.
Don’t drink your calories is a good rule of thumb.
You mean, like, all beer? I love that you have your own preferences, it’s a human right. It’s definitely an acquired taste for most people.
I’ve had one beer I thought tasted pretty good (a Sam Adam’s Cherry Wheat lager). It tasted like cherries. Like a slightly carbonated cherry juice; not beer with a hint of cherry.
I’ve never seen it being sold anywhere since. :(
Pretty sure I just hate the taste of hops. I have no tolerance for bitter flavours.
I really hope you find that cherry wheat lager again.
I was in a restaurant last week that had Milwaukee’s Best N/A for sale. My brain turned off. It might be the worst beer I’ve ever tasted. The only reason we drank it was because we were trying to get a dozen teenagers as fucked up as possible for under $10.
Waitress said it was one of their best sellers. The Beast N/A. Fucking disgusting.

It helps my sober friends that used to down a 12-30 beers a night not lose that flavor. But to market to kids is pathetic
