by Stella Artois Overall Score: ★ ★ ★ ★ ☆ 3.83 This is a well-crafted European-style lager that might actually outshine the original. Crisp, clean, and surprisingly full of character. Packaging Classic Stella branding. Clean, recognizable, and timeless. It doesn’t try too hard—and it doesn’t need to. Look Looks great in a glass and just […]
by Indeed Overall Score: ★ ★ ★ ☆ ☆ 3.20 My first ever NA on tap—not my favorite beer, but it’ll always hold a special place for that reason alone. Can Art I had this on tap, and I don’t think it’s available in cans. So, no points awarded (or taken away) here. Look Looks

by Athletic Brewing Overall Score: ★ ★ ★ ☆ ☆ 2.67 The liquid version of C-SPAN: I’m sure it’s for somebody, but not me. Can Art Super boring. It looks like Athletic’s version of a MIller Lite ca….wait, maybe that’s intentional. Look Nails the style. Light golden, crystal clear, little head to speak of, and
by Alesmith Overall Score: ★ ★ ★ ☆ ☆ 3.33 Alesmith NA IPA is a solid, drinkable, unspectacular beer. It delivers exactly what you’d expect from a nonalcoholic American IPA—nothing more, nothing less.

by Summit Brewing Co. Overall Score: ★ ★ ☆ ☆ ☆ 2.50 Summit Brewing’s Nialas IPA looks the part. It just doesn’t taste like it. Can Art Kinda cool! Similar vibe to the Summit Nialas Latitude, with a design that reflects its Minnesota roots—lakes, trees, and an outdoorsy feel. Look Pretty Damn. Good. Crystal clear,
Overall Score: ★ ★ ★ ★ ☆ 3.50 “Get ready for a nonalcoholic experience that steals the color but not the excitement—meet Mexican Style Copper by Athletic Brewing. Packaging Let’s get one thing straight: the packaging is a snooze-fest. Pale yellow and bland—nothing about it screams “Mexican” or piques your interest. You’ll be hard-pressed to
by Clausthaler Overall Score: ★ ★ ☆ ☆ ☆ 1.80 File this under “I drank it so you don’t have to.” Can Art Ignoring the fact that green glass is a terrible choice for beer due to how much light it lets in, the bottle itself looks fine. It has the classic European light lager
by Summit Brewing Co. Overall Score: ★ ★ ★ ☆ ☆ 2.83 Summit Brewing’s Nialas Latitude Lager is a bit of an oddball. It’s enjoyable in its own way, but if you’re expecting a traditional lager, you might be in for a surprise. Can Art The design is fun and summery—there’s a guy holding a
