Beck's Alcohol-Free Beer

I love beer - not surprising really as it is in my veins, I am Australian after all - I love making my own beer, real ale and just about anything beery. However, there is the odd occasion when I have to be designated driver and I want the taste of beer but not the alcohol. I have tried a number of low or alcohol free beers over the years and mostly they taste like the stuff you put into beer before it ferments - hideous, think and revolting. So I was surprised to find these at the supermarket and as I like the taste of Becks anyway, though to give it a go and me being cynical vowed it would taste rank. I was pleasantly surprised. You get the clean ...  Read the complete review

Normally I wouldn't touch alcohol-free beer with a bargepole. I was at a wedding recently though and really fancied a beer but couldn't have one was because I was the designated driver. So instead, I thought I'd give this Beck's Alcohol-Free Beer a try. I didn't have to pay for it (which was a bonus) but I've discovered it's actually quite expensive to buy at around £3.50 per standard sized bottle! I think the high price is because this is a real beer made from actual hops rather than just a flavour substitute. The problem with this however is that it does in fact contain alcohol!

I would never drink and drive but I would equally normally never drink alcohol free beer, I mean what`s the point?

Now my wife knows full well I dislike normal Becks beer so the chances of me liking the alcohol free one was slim. Becks in my opinion is a very poor beer with a horrible after taste and this alcohol free stuff was even worse. It tasted to me like ...  Read the complete review

I've been drinking this stuff for a few years. I am a big drinker and I was putting on weight and feeling tired in the mornings. I tried this stuff and I loved it! For me it tastes quite good but it has the psychological effect of convincing me that I'm having a proper drink. It's not too gassy so it doesn't bloat you. It has a crisp taste and when it's kept really cold it's refreshing. I notice that the label has recently changed and is called "Blue" but at first glance it doesn't look too different to a standard becks so you won't stand out when you're drinking it in public. The drawback is that it's more expensive than most alcoholic drinks - about £3.60 for ...  Read the complete review
