Pale yellow color with a fizzy white head. Aroma of corn and funk. Very watery flavor, some light corn and some faint hops. The lack of alcohol has a very noticable effect on the flavor, leaving it with a heavier water consistency. Unlike their alcoholic counterparts, this isn’t going to improve with excess drinking.

WHY....WHY? I will never understand the point of drinking this poor excuse for a beer.

Pours a golden yellow color with aroma of corn and some hops. Flavor is more or less carbonated water with some hops present. Worst of the top three N/As in my opinion.

HELL YES! The guys at the beer store laughed at me for getting a single can. I found this monster, and it cost $0.75 for one can. It was totally worth it! Wow. I mean the aroma alone... if there’s one word... it’s urine. Only Sam Adams Triple Bock has outdone this monstrocity. If the Triple Bock’s aroma is about negative 4, this is about zero/10. Clear fizzy yellow body with a rapidly diminishing head, no lacing on the glass. Absolutely lives up to its reputation, drink with friends or good looking strangers. Ok sorry. Fully worthy of a 0.5/5. This only lasted one sip before the toilet water was tarnished from this magical elixer. Thank you ratebeer.com, otherwise I woudla never tried this.

Pours a crisp golden yellow color. Aromas of vegtables, corn, and some minor hopping. Flavor is bitter and kind of bland. Not the best N/A but still better than O’Douls and Sharp’s.

Subpremium priced, subpremium quality. No aroma. Almost no flavour, and thin: mild sweetness, like selzer water with a dash of corn syrup. Extremely foamy head. To its credit, it has no objectionable qualities that stand out: it lacks the unpleasant sourness that characterizes ODoul’s, and I would prefer it to that brew. It’s also less sweet (and overall better) than Coor’s NA, which is much pricier. What I don’t understand is the other reviewers who talk about a skunky smell or stinging quality...are they just disparaging this beer because it’s non-alcoholic? Sure, it’s pretty awful, but because it’s bland, not because it has any real objectionable qualities. In my head, the big question is: why drink this when there’s another NA that is both cheaper (believe it or not) and better--Penn’s Best NA.

clear pale yellow with a metallic/corn aroma. It stings the roof of your mouth if you try and drink it. I hope it didn’t damage the drain.

Can: With your eyes closed you couldn’t tell this is beer. Flat, stale, skunky; more like coloured bad tasting mineral water.
