I was going to say good luck with that one till I read further.
Apparently it's already 10% or so of the global market.
Heineken have launched their 0.0 Beer globally. Can't imagine it would have gone down well with the multi-schooner lunchtime wharfies in the old days.

Bundaberg Breweries does a good non-alcoholic ginger beer. It is usually called soft drink.

Back during the America's Cup days - 1986/7 - we (Perth) used to export ship loads of non-alcoholic beer to Saudi Arabia (and Yemen, Singapore, and Malaysia).

Yeah, that's right - you could too.

Not sure why anyone would bother, though: it tasted like diluted urine.


(Who will be the first rightard to chime in with "How do you know what diluted urine tastes like, Pecca?")

It would suit the 48% of respondents to a Queenslund survey, who said they didn't drink alcohol to get drunk........ thus clearly showing Queenslund to be miles ahead of the rest of the country in its surveys......

I think we have had alcohol free beer in Australia for quite some time. You can buy it at the supermarket.

Its probably just recycled beer.

And you wondered where the urinals went at the pub.

Thats why the beer is in the basement and piped in......yuk

For some reason, full strength or lite beer seem to make me feel a lot better than spirits. Must be the sugar. Just finishing up my slab of beer I bought last Wednesday.
