I was not sure what to expect having read all the other reviews. But as I was the designated driver I thought I’d give this low alcohol brew a chance. It’s certainly the best low alcohol beer I’ve ever tasted and beats most of the "run-of-the-mill" full strength beers I’ve ever tasted too. So, if you are looking for something that satisfies but doesn’t put you over the limit to drive home this comes highly recommended.

MY absolute favourite beer. It tastes richly of the citrustones and the freshness from the Amarillo.A standard in the swedish systembolag.

Bottle. Tropical fruit and pine hop aroma. Beautifull dark amber with a big lacing tan head. Roasted entry, bitter grains notes and hop bitterness play on the back of the throat, salty, edgy minerals - feels full and chewy on the palate - bravo!. Plentifull hops and a very light chocolate note retronasal.
Flavorfull, nice to drink and actually quite moreish -
I think it is fair to say that Brewdog solved the problem with the alcohol free beers.

Bottle. Big head on dark copper. Looks great for .5%. Smells amazingly great; doubly so for lo ABV. Good malt flavor. Light but solid malt base. Hoppy hoppy hoppy. Probably the best under 2% beer I have had. Makes being a designated driver something to look forward to!!!

Bottle from Vinmonopolet of all places.
Strong hopy aroma, like herbal tea-
The flavour is more like a hops extract than a beer, with loads of herbs and mints in it. Still, another way of going where ni\o beer hasgone before.

UPDATED: SEP 18, 2011 Bottles from BrewDog Aberdeen & Appellation Wines. Hoppy aroma. Medium brown colour with a big foamy head. Dry hoppy flavour. This is more like a good IPA rather than an low alcohol beer. One of Brewdog’s best and by far the best low alcohol beer.
3.9 AROMA 9/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20 MesandSim (7109) - London, Greater London, ENGLAND - JUL 23, 2010
A Mes rate. Bottle thanks to the Cad. An excellent amber colour with a really impressive off white head and superb condition. Fantastic fresh hoppy snout. Grassy and floral as you like. Not quite so great in the mouth. Missing the excitement factor of the "strong" version but it’s still pretty good. Lashings of Simcoe, quickly followed with a dollop of Centennial and Amarillo. Effortlessly drinkable obviously. Actually, the more I drink, the better it gets. Light and fruity, just the right level of bitterness. Really good.

Very nice taste, fantastic smell. Little bit watery (but way less then I had expected) but very bitter. Unbelievable mouthfeel for only 0.5 ABV.

This is the best Low Alc. by far of all I have tasted. No doubt. Great hops and great effect as there is now alcohol making you sleepy.I want more of this.

First time i drank it i hated it. Tasted like pure resin with perfume chemicals. Then i gave it a try after coming home from a night out and i loved it. Like licking a battery. Weak body of course, but to me this is a tasty and fun alcohol free alternative.
