Relaxing with an alcohol-free beer from Asahi.

This is incredibly tasty and crisp. And at just £4 for four cans, a bit of a bargain. I’ll definitely be getting it again.

@TheMacPsych I’ve heard good things about Asahi. I’m continually impressed by the strides made in NA brewing. 🍻

@jean Much better quality and a much better range of alcohol-free options these days. It’s great to see. 🍺

@jean Ha - I was about to comment that Asahi is Japanese not North American and then realised that you meant Non Alcholic 🤦‍♂️

@JohnPhilpin I once checked out a book called Fancy AF Cocktails, and they were not alcohol-free recipes. 😒

@Jean @TheMacPsych We’ve been enjoying the Deschutes non-alcoholic Black Butte Porter on the darker side. What else have you enjoyed beside Asahi?

@jatowler There's a non-alcoholic version of that?? I'm definitely going to have to investigate that...

@jatowler Athletic Brewing has an amazing variety. I like their IPAs.

@jatowler @jean Erdinger does a wonderful weißbier, perfect for the summer. Lucky Saint is my second favourite lager. And Guinness 0.0 is far and away the best AF stout. Can’t tell the difference from the standard version. (And I’m from Dublin!!)

@TheMacPsych The Guinness 0% is an extraordinary bit of jiggery-pokery. You can tell a lot of love and thought has gone into it.

@BenSouthwood Absolutely. I just can’t tell the difference. It’s a great example of what’s possible. Also, why is there no Guinness emoji?!

@TheMacPsych @BenSouthwood the first few times I drank Guinness zero I could feel the effects like the first pint. Best zero I've tried.

@jean We’ve tried a few of those, but wow, you’re not kidding about variety! Have you tried the Brooklyn Special Effects IPAs? I like them pretty well, so I’ll have to compare.

@TheMacPsych Didn’t know any of those existed; I’ll put them all on the list. Cheers!

@johnjohnston @TheMacPsych I gave up drink around nine years ago and the Guinness is pretty much the same as I remember it.
