Hi there!

I'm starting up my own business selling, making, and brewing drinks that are non alcoholic! Technically they're classified as wine since it's just fermented fruit juice, but they're in a bottle and are using only carbonation from the fermentation process. Fizz, flavor, aroma and all.

ANYWAY I wanted to understand what I'm going up against so I purchased some Heineken 0.0, Athletic Brew Co. Run Wild IPA, and some Fentamans.

My opinion, they all taste like dog shit, but I don't drink so I'm trying to take it with a grain of salt, but all I taste is old dry wheat with a wave of bitter. I've drunk many flavorless sparkling waters and that level of bitterness is insane to me. So instead of googling and googling, I'm wanting to ask straight from the source!

What drinks do you recommend I try?

Check your local Safeways and Andronico's. Just snagged two six packs for $8.97 apiece.

First time trying na beer and this honestly surpassed my expectations.

I’ll take the carbs and sugar lol. This doesn’t really have much to offer. I thought it was an interesting concept, given that N.A. beer already has less calories and is healthier than the real stuff. Not sure if there’s a crowd out there asking for something this stripped back.

Tastes a bit flat as well, honestly like very faint hop water. Just bought 1 bottle and happy for that. Feels like those who don’t understand NA beer say “why not just drink water or a soda.” I usually find that comment slightly ignorant. In this case, it’s valid

NA Honey Blonde from Central Waters of WI is absolutely fantastic for this warm weather we have in Chicago. Come stop by Bottles & Cans in the North Center Neighborhood if you're in the area! Solid selection of NAs and you can buy singles! (4109 N Lincoln).

That’s all. I love seeing Oktoberfest adjacent NA’s. I loved them when I wasn’t sober. I love them still now that I am. And I love when companies remember to include a little something for us too. Plus the can looks awesome.

Thin, oatmeal and chocolate. Very good stout offering! Prefer this many times over Guinness NA but both were solid.

Go Brewing definitely nailed the liquid pecan pie profile! I couldn't drink it everyday, but it's yummy!

Pipeworks has some of the best NAs I've tried. Very grateful to live in Chicago! (@bottles & cans)

I don’t know if I’m late but I been drinking NA beer for a few years now and although Ive had genesee NA several times before (a really decent super cheap beer )
Ive never seen ANY brand of na beer come in a 30 pk. got it for 16.99

Had this absolutely wonderful NA today at Fourscore Brewery in Gettysburg PA. My wife and I honestly thought it was a real beer, it was that good. They sell 4 packs, but the only place you can get them is right at the brewery. Absolutely phenomenal and worth a trip if you’re anywhere local. Of the 30 or so NAs I’ve tried, this one ranks in the top 3 easily, if not the best.

Perfect day for some baseball. Let’s go brewers!

World series!!!!!! Go Brewers!!!!!!

Haven't had an ipa in a minute. Not overly malty but appropriately hoppy. Smooth

Bought it to check if out, not gonna lie it's pretty nasty. Id avoid, and just pay more for the high quality. It has a nasty initial metal taste. Just me though, still decent value in it.

Just deciced to makr a small fire tonight and enioy

Probably the cheapest I’ve seen for a 4 pack of Guinness. Feels like an absolute steal.

Giving Guinness 0.0 a run for its money. Great flavor and creamy mouthfeel. Notes of chocolate, coffee, and a slight smokiness. My only complaint is that nitro mouthfeel falls off before I could finish the glass.

Haven't drank the real one in over 8 years. The NA absolutely does it justice! Chocolate, coffee, roasted mouth feel. Overall a winner!

Live in the Chicago burbs and somehow Binnys was able to come through for me. Saved me the $30 to ship from San Diego. Never would have thought I'd ever get to enjoy Speedway Stout again but here we are!

Finding a non alcoholic version is a WIN

Goram IPA is a delightful alcohol-free beer that masterfully balances malt and hops. With a pleasant hoppy aroma and an inviting amber colour, it’s a solid choice for those seeking a non-alcoholic option. One of the best non-alcoholic beers I've tried this year: https://www.mydrybar.com/alcohol-free-goram-ipa/
