- Available from Tesco (£4.25/4 x 330ml), Amazon (£25.15/12 x 330ml)

- Available from Morrisons (£5/4 x 440ml), Sainsbury's (£5/4 x 440ml)
This 0% version of the original draught stout pulls off the amazing feat of tasting pretty much identical to the real thing. Well balanced with the classic malty, chocolate and coffee flavours intact and a thick, creamy head on pouring – decant into a pint glass for the best experience.

Sainsbury's (£5/4 x 440ml)
Small Beer Hazy IPA
- Available from The Original Small Beer (£14.25/6 x 330ml cans)
One of the best brands for low-alcohol beer has delivered again with their latest release, a 2.6%-ABV IPA. Using US hops and British malts, it’s got a lovely full-bodied flavour, smooth and rounded, with punchy hoppy notes and a stone fruit character.
Available from:
The Original Small Beer (£14.25/6 x 330ml cans)

Dry-hopped, lemony and piney, and really refreshing, this is a classic West Coast pale ale (0.5% ABV) that is very close to the real thing.
Available from:

BrewDog Nanny State
- Available from Brewdog (£4.66/4 x 330ml)
A dependable drink when you are out (most bars stock it). At 0.5% ABV it packs in all the citrussy, piney flavours you’d expect from a US-style hoppy ale.

Brewdog (£4.66/4 x 330ml)
Days Pale Ale
- Available from Days Brewing (£29.99/12 x 330ml)
We were impressed with this zero-alcohol vegan pale ale from Scottish booze-free brewery Days. Expect tropical notes and a pleasingly rounded texture and full body. Try their lager too, which is crisp and chuggable without being thin and watery.
Available from:
Days Brewing (£29.99/12 x 330ml)
