3.3 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
(I see a lot of low ratings numbers for near-beer. I know its not good as a beer. I don’t rate wine to beer or tea to coffee either. This is its own entity so these numbers will not reflect my pattern of taste in alcohol beer.)
Medium head with a beautiful amber color and a nice malt aroma. Touch of vinegar in the nose as well. Strong carbonation saltiness with just a fraction of that malt flavor the aroma promised. Finishes clean just a bit of bitter hop left on the back of the tongue.

This is the best of the N/A’s I’ve had. Sipped one today at Johnny’s Irish Pub. Very light, with a taste of malt and butterscotch. Not much else going on here, but nothing offensive.

1.6 AROMA 2/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 5/20
Bottle - Found in my parents house - Small head, sweet grass aroma, very bland flavour (almost like paper!) not bad for a NA beer
1.8 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 5/20
One of the better NA beers, dark copper in color, generous white head, lots of malt in the nose with a big note of yeast, big malty flavor as well, the malt is definitely the drive behind this beer, balanced a bit toward the end of the flavors with a nice touch of spicy hops, another big wallop of yeast is tasted in the finish as well, didn’t leave much lacing around the glass, but a very enjoyable NA brew
