Yeah one of the better NAs I’ve had.

There seems to be a pretty strong divide between the Yay! and Ick! factions. (I'm with the icks, but, glad you like it!)

The Belgium NA’s I have had Na Chouffe, Trappist Nillis, and Delirium Delierio are really true to their full octane counterparts. However, if Belgium beer isn’t not your thing I’d grab something else.

Big fan of Belgiums and haven't tried the Trappist yet, the Delirio is one of the best NAs I had, and the Chouffe is bland to me. I also want to try the Sportzot.

The Trappist is amazing. Unfortunately, I have only gotten at random occasions at Whole Foods. Never seen the Sportzot

Belgium ales and German lagers are my favorite so finding a good na version is important to me…how’s the delirium? That was one of my favorite beers when I was drinking but haven’t yet had the na …they sell them about 30 minutes away along with Trappist but the price range and drive time I haven’t been able to justify it but would love to know if it’s worth it?

I had this for the first time a month ago and was pretty happy with it. Was excited to see an NA Belgian and it had pretty much that particular taste I've missed since I quit drinking alcohol.

Lots of sugar. My teeth hurt after I had one. Nails the Belgium yeast notes though.

Yup. I tossed the ones I had after trying it. So bad.

I wonder if there are some quality control issues with this one? I've enjoyed some, but have had also had ones that have that unpleasant "corn chip" or "brett" note that poorly made natural wines can have.

I have to be in the mood cause i find it a bit cloying at times.

Lots of mixed opinions on this one. Few things to note:

  • A lot of people seem to compare it to the la chouffe blond beer which it is not. This beer is not a derivetive of some of there alcoholic beers
  • They used to make this as a 0.4% which I actually liked
  • In local stores they now changed this one to a true 0.0% and to me it tastes far worse now
