IMSA (3), Vancouver, Washington, USA does not count May 20, 2006 My favorite NA beer. Good flavor, good color, but it is an acquired taste. Way, Way better than Sharps or O’Douls Suds_McDuff (1021), was CapeTown,SA-now Houston,TX, Texas, USA Apr 6, 2008 A truly great beer... has a delicious flavour for a reduced alcohol beer .. the foam level is awesome, lower on the lacing ... flavour is good, even fooled a friend thinking this was a regular beer ... wonderful on a warm day when alcohol is not an option!! gollitogarcia (11), Texas, USA Aug 12, 2006 When pregnant and wanting to celebrate/hang-out with drinkers - this beer gets huge thumbs up! I tried every NA out there and this was the ONLY thing that even partly made me feel as though I was enjoying an actual beer. Kudos to the Guiness folks! cazort (373), Lancaster, Pennsylvania, USA Jan 12, 2005 Updated: Apr 28, 2007Heavy and smooth for a non-alcoholic; style-wise it tastes more like an Oktoberfest than anything else. The malt has some complexity to it, and the hops are very weak. It’s not great; it could use some more hops, but it’s worth having now and then for variety, if you’re into the NA’s. BrianHagmeier (174), Coralville, Iowa, USA Feb 10, 2008 (I see a lot of low ratings numbers for near-beer. I know its not good as a beer. I don’t rate wine to beer or tea to coffee either. This is its own entity so these numbers will not reflect my pattern of taste in alcohol beer.)
Medium head with a beautiful amber color and a nice malt aroma. Touch of vinegar in the nose as well. Strong carbonation saltiness with just a fraction of that malt flavor the aroma promised. Finishes clean just a bit of bitter hop left on the back of the tongue.
