-OH drinks.... Login/Join

I want / need to cut down on -OH consumption. But I do enjoy the taste of wine and beer.

Questions:
1) does -OH actually add to the taste and enjoyment? I'm thinking not. I know that -OH is a byproduct of the process but not sure it really adds to the end taste.

2) Is it possible to make good wines/beers with minimal residual -OH? Or is -OH critical to the taste? There are some scotches that taste very good but I can only drink a shot or so. If they had minimal -OH and tasted the same, I might be close to bankrupt. Smile

2) Are there any decent wines / beer with minimal -OH? I want to enjoy the beverages and taste but limit my -OH intake.

Erdingder makes a somewhat decent non-alcoholic beer. Not quite as good as the normal stuff, but it's certainly leagues better than the other non-alcoholic beer I've tasted.

the only NA wine I have seen is basically the cheap stuff, like sutter home, (and the one I tasted was nasty)

as far as beer, Kaliber , brewed by Guinness is supposed to be about the best,
never had one tho

Clausthaler Golden Amber is one that I have tried and would do again.

The only NA beer that I've ever thought didn't taste horrible was Clausthaler Premium.

I think that Kaliber, Buckler, Becks, Claustholer, and SP Girl were ok. The Paulaner brand and their Radler are the best, IMO.

what is -OH and why do you need to cut down? I'm lost here.



I was ​always taught to respect my elders, but it keeps ​getting harder to find one.

My personal opinion is what's the point? If there isn't a bit of a buzz involved, give me good cold ice water, good tea, homeade lemonade and a once in a while soft drink. Smile

Thanks guys. Making a list.

I like the taste of beer and wine but health issues are limiting my intake.

I would get a second or third opinion. Wink

There are no songs about near beer or sparkling grape juice.

Alcohol is part of the palate experience, before it even affects your system.
Like a warm kiss from your lover, w/o it, it's something lesser.

But I like a good root beer too.
