Na-Beer

West Coast IPA

You won't mistake it for the real thing, but it's decently close.

Rationale Brewing
West Coast IPA

Nice hoppy taste but basically no body — closer to a hop-water seltzer than a beer.

Best Day Brewing
West Coast IPA

You won't mistake it for real beer, but it's not bad.

Athletic Brewing
Upside Dawn Golden Ale

Light, refreshing, and pretty beer-like — just a little short of perfect.

Athletic Brewing
Tucker's West Coast IPA

Tastes and feels almost indistinguishable from the real thing — easily the favorite NA beer here.

BrewDog
Toffee Baby

Expected to love this one — it's actually nasty.

Athletic Brewing
Run Wild IPA

An extremely convincing near beer — almost easy to forget it doesn't have alcohol.

Rationale Brewing
Rational Vibes Cerveza

Good stuff, a little heavier than an actual Mexican lager — probably improved with lime.

BrewDog
Punk AF Hoppy Ale

Nice hoppy taste, decent body — easy to forget it has no alcohol.

Partake Brewing
Pale

Also delicious — Partake winning again.

Lagunitas
Non-Alcoholic Beer

This stuff sucks — but it's an early mover, so it's what most bars pour by default.

BrewDog
Nanny State Hoppy Golden

Fine, but not fantastic.

Grüvi
Mocha Nitro Stout

Really tasty, but literally flat — worth trying again in case it was just a bad six-pack.

Italian Style Pils

An extremely convincing near beer — almost completely fills the void.

Partake Brewing
IPA

Delicious with a decent body — a rare NA beer that doesn't feel thin.

Fieldwork Brewing
Headliner IPA

Delicious, hoppy, and refreshing — none of the syrupy mouthfeel most NA beers have.

Partake Brewing
Hazy IPA

Not everything can be a winner.

Barrel Brothers
Hazy IPA

Good taste but no body — a hop-water experience, not a beer experience.

BrewDog
Hazy AF Guava

A good example of its kind, but hazy and fruity beers just aren't a personal favorite style.

BrewDog
Hazy AF

If you like hazy IPAs, this is pretty good.

Guinness
Guinness Zero

Not quite the body of the real thing, but damn close — tasty and convincing.

Grüvi
Golden

A nice refreshing beer for a hot day — not much flavor, but not meant to be.

BrewDog
Ghost Walker

Really hoppy and tasty — and the can looks hella cool, too.

BrewDog
Faux Fox Sharp Black Cherry

This is gross.

BrewDog
Elvis AF Hoppy Grapefruit

Surprisingly good, even for someone who doesn't generally like fruity beers.

Partake Brewing
Dunkel

Fantastic taste for a dark lager fan, though the body is ever so slightly light.

Fieldwork Brewing
Day Money Grapefruit Blonde

You have to like grapefruit essence in your beer, but if you do, this is fantastic.

Barrel Brothers
Dark Sarcasm Porter

Good flavor, but the body isn't there — more like burnt barley soda than a real porter experience.

Barrel Brothers
Dad Pants Pilsner

Really excellent Pilsner — can be hard to find, and watch out for the full-alcohol version of the same name.

BrewDog
Clockwork AF Hoppy Tangerine

Tasty enough, but the fruity-beer trend just doesn't scratch an itch here.

Athletic Brewing
Cerveza Atletica Light Copper

Fantastic taste and body — tastes a lot like a Negra Modelo.

Partake Brewing
Blonde

Fine, but thick-feeling and flat-sweet — worth noting blondes were never a personal favorite style to begin with.

Athletic Brewing
All Out Extra Dark

A really good porter with the right body and a nutty porter taste.
