I recently gave up drinking and realized that there is limited access to non-alcoholic beers in grocery stores and to my knowledge none available in bars. Sure there is the regular sludge they sell at such and such store but there are some n/a beers out there that would be great to have available in Halifax.
Seems to me if any responsible bar wanted to keep a designated driver content throughout the evening of their pals antics the least they could do would offer them the option to purchase a non-alcoholic beer, maybe one that didn’t taste like it was brewed in a plywood box. Trust me, when you’re watching your friends pound back bottles of your favorite brew just about anything close to beer will ease the envy…slightly. So for all the preggos, the people that can’t drink for health reasons, those that just choose not to and the poor forgotten designated driver (if there are any left), please give us some options. Thanks. —Anonasaraus

  1. Give it up already. Y U drink pissy non alchohoic beer? Tastes gross and your feeding your taste for booze, making yourself crave the real stuff. Switch to water or salt free big 8 nice fizzy sparkling wata for a real kick!

  2. I drink non alcohol beer/.5. I like it.
    Taste is a personal thing, and making a universal statement about it is a bit dickish.

    Now carrots.
    Those fuckers are GROSS.

  3. Why would you watch your friends pound em back if You Can’t anymore? You need to add masochist/sadist/self pitier to your list of fine qualities. Have you never heard the old saying: Visit the barbershop enough and you will get a haircut???? If you want to stay sober stay out of the watering holes. Just sayin…..

  4. If you were/are a regular at a small bar, ask them to put a case in stock(provide it yourself if necessary).
    Been there, done that, too easy.

  5. There’s a great opportunity for you OP. Local distributor of NA beer. You’ve voiced the need and noted the absence. Maybe something to look into.
    Wogdog has a point. If you’re trying to quit drinking, stay away from the watering holes.

  6. yeah o.p., there is very little market for the faux booze. that’s why it is so hard to find. maybe you should sit down and create your own sesihol, and make a zillion bucks. get all the high, without getting the high hangovers.

  7. WHat about the non drinking designated driver.
    IF you are a non drinker, having the option of something to drink besides water (because soda aka pop is just fucking gross) wanting a non alcoholic beer isn’t much to ask of a place that sells alcoholic type beers IMO.

  8. Ha, halifax is a bunch of tools, there isn’t much they wouldn’t complain about. Beer? Complain about complaining about beer. You’re all sick.

  9. Wheelie

    Your right people have different tastes.

    I like Carrots too.

    I don’t drink often anyway.

  10. well it looks like no_fool will be happy…
