Impression: Bayer Saamerla is a great looking beer that took some time to pour due to the massive sturdy head. It is quite tasty and full for an alcohol-free beer with a citrusy palate and lingering semi-dry finish. Many will switch to this after a regular beer if driving but it will obviously taste thin then. I had it first and it slowed me down on the regular beer that tad I needed.
Non-alcoholic beers are becoming way more popular in the Northwest. I’ve been wondering how you would evaluate them.
I have had a few. A couple of them were mistaken purchases I bought without my reading glasses. A friend drinks this one a fair bit and said it was his favorite. He’s usually my lift to this particular brewery. It was good and I’d definitely drink it more often if I were driving.
