Barbican n/a is another one which I have to try, quite popular in the Middle East so I read.

Have not had Heineken in forever. I did like the Heineken Dark better than the regular though. Same with Dos Equis & Modelo...the darker versions are just better beers.

Many a time as a teenager I walked into a bar and ordered a "dark Heinie".
I thought I was so cool.

Now, I don't like either Heineken.

Never been a Heineken person taste just put me off, now I prefer darker lower alcohol ale's like John Smith smooth and not lager though the only alcohol free beers which I drink when driving's involved seem all based on lagers.

I only drink alcohol free radlers with any frequency, but that has very little in common anymore with beer.

Alcohol free beer....It's not as bad as it was when they were introduced in the 90's, but still....if you drink one, the craving for a real beer gets bigger and bigger, and you only drink an alcohol free one if you can't have a real one. So it's something of a death trap

Never tasted the first a/f ones but gather they tasted like plastic?

No like watered down apple juice with a hint of stale old coffee (to my tastebuds at least). absolutely disgusting I thought it was (back in the early 90's)
Last decade they have improved on that though but it's still an obsolete drink for me at the moment. Maybe in a few years.
I also tried an alcohol free white beer recently...also disgusting. (where the normal white beers are one of my favorites in the summer months)
The only alcohol free beer related drinks I like/tolerate are the Radlers, and then preferably the not so sweet ones which I drink frequently as an alternative for soda drinks and juices.

I just tried Praga, a Czech beer, it was pretty damn good tbh. I like European versions of beer styles that I would mostly avoid here in the US. Like Pilsners & Lagers to name a couple

Picked up a pack of Schofferhofer Pomegranate recently. It's a 50:50 mix of Hefeweizen and pomegranate juice. Not too sweet, not too bitter, and not overly carbonated. Definitely recommend it if you like pomegranate.

I guess so, although I haven't actually tried any Shandy. I used to make my own spin on it with Monster (ginger beer flavor)... Actually worked quite well, but I don't mix energy drinks and alcohol anymore.

Asahi Super Dry in the 500ml cans because it's actually made in Japan. Every other variant is crap.

Here are a few fav's of mine. A little on the pricy side and definitely not football drinking beer for sure.. at 55 degree's F in the right glass these are awesome...!! If you've never had it, try it..

St. Bernardus Abt 12
Rochefort 8 or 10

Both are solid brews! St. Bernardus has a great lineup of beers and Rochefort 10 is my favorite of those.

Not my best but currently being savored on the deck.
