I sometimes have to drink NA’s due to driving so i actually try to enjoy them and more so, appreciate them for what they offer... Now that I have that semi rant over...Pours a medium brown colour with a low- medium head, smell is of older malts and a strange maple syrup hybrid... taste is kinda pleasant, similar to Shiner Bock but not as off putting... a surprise actually, better than most imported NA beers and easily one of the more drinkable American NA beers! ..regular o’douls might be crap, but this at least has some hope!
If you drink O’Douls, you don’t drink. But if you drink 20 O’Douls in a half hour, then you’re a fucking non-alcoholic. Non-alcoholism is a problem too. And there are symptoms, like when you fall down, does it always hurt? wheatfreak (41), Marinette, Wisconsin, USA

I’ve had this before when I just wanted a barley pop; good for the duration while someone is running for more beer, and there’s just bud light remaining in the cooler. ebrowner88 (113), Rice, Minnesota, USA
| 2.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Mar 22, 2008 This is good for an NA. Malty nose and taste. I used to drink this when I went out to ea with my father-in-law who is in AA. Until he told me he didn’t care if I drank and then the flood gates opened. Slacks (484), Bolton, Ontario, Canada
| 1.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 3/10 | 2/5 | 3/10 | 2/5 | 8/20 | Mar 16, 2008 Sampler Glass: I’ll never turn down a rating, especially when it’s offered in the midst of my grocery shopping! Haha. So she’s brown in colour, quite carbonated, moderate white head. Roasty malty nose, elements of wet grass and cardboard. Flavour is watery but offering decent roasted malt sweetness. Obviously nowhere near the best, but I have to admit it rated higher than I thought it would. I’d actually likely pick this over (Name Brand Here) macro pale lager if given the choice!

| 1.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 3/10 | 3/5 | 3/10 | 2/5 | 6/20 | Mar 8, 2008 Can. Large off-white thick foamy head that mostly lasted. Ok display of lacework left in the glass. Pale amber color with a sparkling look. Aroma of light toasted malt, hint of floral notes with light straw at the end. Over the palate came a hint of liquorish or like Turkish pepper candies with light malt and corn in there as well. Light bodied with an average carbonation. Malty sweet flavor. Light liquorish like malty finish. Precept53 (113), West Bloomfield, Michigan, USA
| 2.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 2/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 1/5 | 12/20 | Feb 25, 2008 For an NA, especially one made by AB this was fairly well made. Faint malt and hop aroma, decent hop taste and not skunky or bitter like many NA beers. It’s main downside is that it has a rather thin mouth feel, but no bad aftertaste and quite drinkable. Head and shoulders above regular Odouls! charlelos (14), SAN ANTONIO, Texas, USA
| 2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 3/10 | 3/5 | 3/10 | 3/5 | 8/20 | Feb 20, 2008 well, the one thing i like about this brew is the fact that when you put it down. it goes down like an amber. you can taste it and know it’s gone down ur throat. it’s not like drinking an ultra.

| 1.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 2/5 | 2/10 | 2/5 | 8/20 | Feb 19, 2008 Pours nice amber color with white head that dissipates quickly. Aroma isn’t too bad, some malts and like previous posts cardboard. Not much to speak of in terms of flavor, mostly a hint of malts, but I’ve had worse tasting regular beers. Only the second NA beer I’ve had, and this was better than the first.
