Erdinger's non-alcoholic Weissbier looks the part straight out of the bottle, proper hazy gold, and a head that actually sticks around instead of collapsing into nothing the second it hits the glass, which is more than I can say for some AF attempts. Aroma's a bit shy, but still there, don't expect the exact same hit you'd get off the boozy version, but that's about the only complaint I can find. If you've not had the alcoholic version, then it could quite easily pass on it's own merit as a genuinely delicious AF beer. Taste-wise it's genuinely close to a real Weissbier: proper wheat body, soft, none of that thin watery finish that seems to plague a few AF versions. Genuinely refreshing bottled beer that I will be buying again, no question.

The Bavarian wheat beer classic, marketed as an isotonic recovery drink and beloved of runners. Banana-bread maltiness with a clean finish.

Who's rating it - and what they think
A "tastes just like it" from someone three years sober and a "tastes just like it" from a curious wine drinker are not the same thing. That's why we split it out.
