It’s a hot summer afternoon. I’m sitting down on a hot afternoon, with a burger, and a cold beer.

What I’m looking for is something to replace…

      On the days when I’m really just hanging out for, and worked a really sweaty, dirty day on the chainsaws, I drink N/A beer. The cheapest I can find. It either hits the spot or it tastes like garbage and turns me off beer again. Either way it averts the craving and lets me stay sober. Most alcos in recovery will frown on N/A beer, but I don’t care, whatever helps me not drink alcohol is fair game.

      This right here. Some are very bad, but there are some really good ones around these days. Guinness for example tastes almost identical to real Guinness.

        Seconded, non alcoholic Guinness is excellent.

        I also like the NA forms of:

        • Corona
        • Peroni
        • Warsteiner
        • Erdinger

        Had a few other good ones but can’t recall which they were.

        I actually think Guinness zero tastes different but in fact way better than the original. There’s been times when i was drinking, but would occasionally opt for a zero if it was an option.

        Leffe blonde LA (0.5%, i think) is awesome, miles better than most. I find the Guinness LA a bit bland, lacking in the aftertaste and a bit watery.
