re: Let's talk Non-alcoholic beer

For medical reasons I could not drink alcohol or caffeine for years, bad gastritis if I did. That means if I'm eating out the beverage choices are very limited, water or non alcohol beer. Some soft drinks like sprite don't have caffeine, but I didn't want all the sugar, 99% of restaurants don't have a no sugar no caffeine choice.

So I frequently got an Odouls or my favorite, Buckler. Keep in mind these beverages were invented by lawyers, not brewmasters. Places carry them so if someone gets drunk and hurts someone it lessens their liability if they offer a non alcoholic option.

But they are not bad, but it sure doesn't taste like beer.
