This is such a great Beer for being NA.Has a really,really refreshing taste.Just like a normal Becks.Great for dinner companionship

Bottle. Pours a crystal clear, light gold with a medium, fluffy white head. Has a nice Pilsner malt aroma with some grass and florals. Flavor is lightly sweet and very bready, with some good bitterness on the end. Light bodied, well carbonated, cloud-like. Very good alcohol-free beer.

UPDATED: APR 8, 2009 My version seems somewhat different as it says Alcohol Free on the front! No more than 0.5% Anyhow. Tastes fine, as good as normal becks, even get a little effect of alcohol unless that is my imagination.

UPDATED: MAY 10, 2009 Bottle, 275ml. Revised rating, tried another bottle that turned out to be a massive improvement on the first: Pours golden with white head, which doesn’t last too long. Quite hoppy aroma, and pleasantly clean and crisp on the palate, with no surprises. Very decent for an N/A, but it does seem to be particularly susceptible to skunking, much more so than alcholol beers, perhaps because the acohol has a preservative effect. Lesson: make sure to secure a ’fresh’ bottle!

Pours golden yellow, with nice body. Smells sweet and musty like a good pils. It has a decent flavor, but unfortunately that cheat grain taste comes out in the end.

Quite nice for a low alcohol beer, was expecting something like Kaliber with its stale taste but was quite supprised by this. Was like a normal lager. Felt great drinking yet not getting the affect of the dreaded alcohol.

Veyr weird, it tasted like water with a Barley bread on it, nothing to say about it beisdes it was not beer at all.

Beck’s, Beck’s Premier Light, and Beck’s N/A Horizontal rating. 12oz green bottle. DATE 04.2009. Pours slightly darker golden, tallest white head of the three. Light aroma of biscuits and honey. Full flavored. Flavor is of a loaf of sourdough dough. This bottle is much more tastier than the Beck’s Premier Light. This one is much darker than the others, makes me wonder how much more malt is used to give this beer its character.

Not really that bad for non alcoholic fare. Certainly thirst quenching and safe for a hot summers day when driving. Not the worst by any means.

On our vacation in Austria,Taxenbach, I bought this in a supermarket. It had this one high in the mountains at a almgasthof.
