Just a fun little aside - Heineken introduced Heineken 0.0 a few years back, and as non-alcoholic beers go, it's the only one that doesn't taste "off".
Even Athletic Brewing Company, as nice as it is to have non-alcoholic stouts and IPAs, hasn't nailed what Heineken has.
(Incidentally, it was a 0.0 that Pogba removed from the table, so perhaps it wasn't the alcohol that bothered him)
- datameta 5y agoI normally don't have strong brand opinions but I have to say Athletic Brewing make the best non-alc hazy ipa and lager I've ever had. Before them I'd only have non-alc beer at events where people drink, now I'll have a few at home weekly.
- randompwd 5y ago> Alcohol-free beer does contain a small amount of alcohol (up to 0.05% ABV). This is because some alcohol naturally forms as part of the brewing process. https://www.drinkaware.co.uk/facts/alcoholic-drinks-and-units/difference-between-alcoholic-and-non-alcoholic-beers https://www.drinkaware.co.uk/facts/alcoholic-drinks-and-unit...
- caeril 5y agoAt the level of Heineken 0.0, which is actually 0.03%, it should be noted that the alcohol content of most unwaxed ripe fruit is higher due to natural subsurface fermentation by wild yeasts. To my knowledge, Muslims do eat fruit.
- dfxm12 5y agoFWIW, someone poured me a can of Heineken 0.0 a few weeks back, telling me it was a Heineken and I immediately thought something was off about it. I just assumed it was really old or something (I was at a family member's place who doesn't drink and just keeps some beer around for guests), but when I actually looked at the can and saw what I was drinking, I realized why.
