Can You Spot the AF Beer?

10 real tasting notes. Some are alcohol-free. Some aren't. Most people get fewer than 6 right.

How it works: I'll show you a real tasting note from a real beer. Your job is simple - is it a regular beer, or is it 0.0% alcohol-free? No tricks, no obscure craft stuff. These are beers you'd actually find in a UK pub or supermarket. Ready?

What this proves

Modern alcohol-free beers are genuinely indistinguishable from regular beers in blind tests. The technology has moved on from the watery rubbish of 10 years ago. Some AF beers now use the same brewing process as regular beer, then gently remove the alcohol - keeping all the flavour.

The best ones? They don't just taste like beer. They make your Tuesday evening feel like Friday - without the Wednesday morning feeling like a car crash.
