What’s the Best Non-Alcoholic Alternative to an Ice Cold Beer at the End of the Day?

The flavor of beer is rich and complex and I can’t think of anything to replace the experience of beer.

If it helps, I actually like fruity beer, something sweet but with still some bitterness and that complex flavor I can’t describe that most good beers have.

Why not a softdrink or a root beer? It’s just not the same, it’s like a different branch from beer.

      Seconding the teas and coffees. It’s fun to try different flavors and techniques.

      A nice filter roast cold drip, lots of ice, in a whisky glass. Lots of fruit and berry flavours to be found!

      Be careful though, caffeine takes 12 hours for your body to process. If you have sleep trouble it is likely to impact your quality of sleep even if you feel like caffeine doesn’t affect you.

      A great rabbit hole! But for me, the caffeine is part of my morning wake up routine, so I have to have something different for my evening cool down.

      I’m loving the ideas on this thread!

      I got addicted to David’s Tea because of their amazing variety of teas. And with a loose tea it’s easy to make the flavour as strong or weak as you like.
