1.8 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 6/20 JoeMcPhee (6835) - Toronto, ON, Ontario, CANADA - AUG 19, 2005
Picked this up on the way of the grocery store just to see how is was. Clear, deep amber colour with a thi white head. Malty aroma, light sweet caramel aroma. Flavour is semi-sweet, caramel, a bit waxy, with light bitterness. This won’t win any awards, but I’ve had much worse. It doesn’t have that cloying raw wort flavour that many N/A beers have.

Dirty amber/brown color. Aroma is faint roasted grain/malt. No flavor whatsoever. Another style down.
1.2 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 1/10 PALATE 1/5 OVERALL 2/20 cazort (456) - Newark, Delaware, USA - JUL 21, 2005
UPDATED: MAR 19, 2007 (bottle) This one greatly disappointed me; I was hoping it would be better than the regular O’Doul’s but it was worse. Pleasant aroma; taste is weak, sour malt flavour with hint of hops. Has the bad qualities (chemical taste) of many macro brews. Heavy, and quite filling; actually, the heaviest NA beer I’ve had yet, but the taste is so weak that this isn’t a good thing. If you want a cheap NA, there are many better choices. In my opinion, even the regular O’Doul’s is a better beer.

UPDATED: FEB 2, 2006 The colour is Amber, efectivelly,but it is still a non alcoholic beer, so I rate it like a normla beer, maybe is not fair.

Amber gold with fizzy head . Grassy raw grainy aroma . Highly carbonated , sweet that is increasingly more shown while you drink . Light fruity malt feel can’t save the day .

ah, my first non alcoholic beer. not too bad an appearance some color. fairly high carbonation. definately on the sweet side with little to no finish. not quite beer, but not soda. just a fizzy malty beverage that wont get you drunk.

Sticky sweet aroma, pale amber, tiny head. Malt flavour, sweet, about as expected.
1.5 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 1/5 OVERALL 6/20 mds (2115) - Toronto, Ontario, CANADA - JUN 26, 2005
bottle. light copper body with a small white head.not exactly and offensive aroma but not all that pleasing. some cardboard and caramel sweetness. This is rather rough - high carbonation. Sweet body with plastic flavours. I’ve never really been impressed with this style.
