It tastes enough like beer that my hubby, the beer LOVER, is phasing it into his plans so that he doesn't get quite so much alcohol. I tried it too, and to me it tastes like beer, but I'm not as well qualified to talk about what beer tastes like, if that makes any sense. :roll:

I have to drink it. It's not that bad - better with a lime in it.

If you perfer - Sutter makes a somewhat palatable series of non alcholic wines called Fre.

I'm with Wayne on this one. The Amber O'Douls is much better than the regular. Also, the Coor's N/A is not too bad.

I drink N/As when I'm entertaining business clients. That way I can look like I'm throwing a few back with them, all the while being able to drive home and work the next morning. :pirate:

I have tried most of the mentioned ones. Never have had the Amber O'Douls though. I will have to give it a try.

One thing I will say is O'Douls had to change there recipe from when it first came out on the market compared to today's product. The original was p*** water.

I like Molson Excel if you like Molson. And tell you to stay away from St Pauli. Tastes like skunked beer. :o

Good idea, BG.

My mom went that route last year when she was taking medication that kept her from her nightly cocktail routine. She found it to be a reasonably decent substitute. :)

As others have mentioned, I've heard the taste is much better than when the non-alcoholic beers first came out.

Doesn't taste enough like beer to me to waste the calories on it!

I have tried them all and gave up on O'Douls, etc for getting that refreshing taste that you get from a good old cold beer.

I have had a number of St. Pauli beers that tasted skunked (their regular brews). In both cases it probably comes from mishandling in transit.

My dear ol' Da used to say that the best beer is whatever's brewed locally. Anything else is subject to the worst treatment possible -- heat, agitation and light do bad things to beer.
