Kaliber (non-alcoholic)

Kaliber
Non-alcoholic beer (<0.5% ABV)

Poured into a beer mug.
Brilliantly clear, dark golden colored with some white head, poor head retention, but some lacing. Looks like a beer and better than many real beers.
Sweet toasty bready aroma with ugly sulfur notes and the exact same taste with plenty of sweetness, zero hops, sulfur notes and a sweetish finish. Body is very decent, and better than many other regular beers, but manages to stay crisp with carbonation. If you're willing to ignore the sulfur and drink cold and fast enough such that the sweet finish fails to bother, it's a decent drink.
Overall a "not horrible" non-alcohol alternative but I'd rather drink Coke etc.
Scores (out of 5): Appearance 3.5; Aroma 2.5; Taste 2.5; Mouthfeel 4; Drinkability 4
