Fantastic! Really great flavor and body to this. @estrellagalicia00 is a great #nabeer. Slightly bitter & hoppy. Great cold. Another summer #nabeer. 8/10 #nabeerreviews Purchased at @totalwine natick instagr.am/p/CsgOTHCu5D_/

I’m still not 💯 sure how N/A beer is brewed. I know there are different techniques. @wellbeingbrewing describe their Victory Wheat as being brewed and then having the ‘alcohol gently removed’. There’s a light, orangey flavor to this. Almost shandy li… instagr.am/p/CsZloT2PJeT/

A lifetime ambition, combining running with the art of #donut eating. Organized by the wonderful Charlotte at @charlesriverrunning, our challenge was to consume 3 @dunkin donuts over the course of 2.something miles. Each donut to be totally consumed bef… instagr.am/p/Cr8rxF0LEJG/

I like ‘em light. I like ‘em dark. These #nabeers I like them a lot. As a dark (not daaaaaark #iykyk) beat to let it breathe before drinking. Gets all the richness hiding inside - coffee/chocolate. Light hop. Not a heavy beer. Quite light and a touch fru… instagr.am/p/Cr6chbovchX/

It’s a twofer #nabeer evening. Yeah I’m writing the weekly newsletter for @thesolesofmedfield (ah the creative process). Plus #moonagedaydream is on the tv distracting me with #davidbowieart But here comes @samueladamsbeer ‘Gold Rush’. Fruity. Bitter. … instagr.am/p/Cr1_h0Lu7C3/

Did you think/hope I’d fallen off the #nabeer review wagon? Sorry to disappoint. Here’s another @gobrewing entry. Another of their recent release (minimal can design guaranteed to please @aj_leonidas ). A porter is great choice for an #nabeer tbh. Not in… instagr.am/p/CrrRkZpvZpR/

Something about the #sandiegoconferencecenter reminded me of the terrible/good #scifitv I watched in the 70s & 80s. People being chased by groups of police/soldiers thru this futuristic concrete setting, as they tried to escape ‘from the zone’ instagr.am/p/CrZBak5POey/

K. I ain’t going to lie. I really like @heineken 0.0. This maybe my summer brew. Lots of flavor. Would be hard to discern from a regular Heineken. Like @guinness they’ve made a beer that stands on its own, has all the right flavor profiles and notes you’… instagr.am/p/CrX_gjnusrQ/

So a trip to #sandiego last week. Didn’t get to try anything supper local. But did catch up with @lagunitasbeer IPNA. This is a decent IPA by any measure. Crisp. Hoppy. A great #nabeer alternative for an IPA. Hard to class east coast vs west coast. Haven… instagr.am/p/CrX_NAJuDWf/

Evening stroll to @notnottacos in #littleitalysandiego with @deanansermoz. Great flavors - lamb, Korean bbq, pork & mac’n cheese Again sights & art on display. One more day of #whlive23 tmrw then home. Plenty to digest - work wise & taste wise instagr.am/p/CrPvyfdOvAb/

The old ball park … Enthusiasm abounds despite this evening’s loss. Almost like they were just there for the atmosphere, expensive food & drink, & because there’s only 120 games left in the season instagr.am/p/CrNG8IpOnqU/

More #sandiego. The architecture of the #sandiegoconventioncenter is fascinating me. Tacos abound & @tacocentrosd was phenomenal (add to your list @nourishwithcoco ). Old San Diego #architecture glorious too Another #run this morning on the #embarcedero … instagr.am/p/CrLn9HjrL_o/

First time staying (working) in #sandiego. Here for a great week at #workhumanlive23. Chance this morning to get out & run. Who knew San Diego has hills. Fun to run the #embarcadero and see so much of the cities marine history Plus a chance to take in t… instagr.am/p/CrJNp6_LCWx/

Did I tell you about @guinnessus Zero?? It’s a mighty #nabeer. Remember I said there were two selections I tried at the beginning of this, 3 months ago, that convinced me that I could become a regular #nabeer drinker? This was the second of the two If … instagr.am/p/CrFAARILKn-/

Non-alcoholic IPA? Ding-ding-ding! Keeps its flavor and body. Sure it’s no DIPA but the hoppyness stays true & this doesn’t end up tasting washed out. Nice job @gobrewing definitely ordering again 8.5/10 #nabeer #nabeerreviews instagr.am/p/CrCZk77L28n/

Seems like TN is the FLorida of the Midwest

A 3fer post. @gobrewing offered a beta release - the #blackandtan mix pack. Cans of their porter and red ale shipped together. And a handy card on how to pour a black and tan Gotta say that in this instance the sum was not as good as the parts. Both the… instagr.am/p/CqwCD_qP_Tc/

Ok so next in my #nabeer review ‘Get Set’ from @kit_na_brewing of #maine. Another #nabeer #brewery. Again very clean. An #ipa per brewer I’d actually say this is more pale ale than IPA. And this maybe something #nabeer have to handle. The flavors don’t h… instagr.am/p/CqOwBCzPUcm/

No silly. I’m not drinking #nabeer at 630 on a Saturday morning. But a couple of posts from the week I wanted to share (this was a week that tested my #drystreak to the max) @bravusbrewco are America’s first #nabrewery. Based in CA they ship across the c… instagr.am/p/CqNW3PxuwcW/

Ok so on my #nabeer journey I’m detecting a trend. Pilsners and lager/Mexican style beers hold up pretty well to the NA treatment. This is from @bigdropbrewco a brewery dedicated to #nabeers. I’ve tried their pale ale (so-so) and dark (review to come).… instagr.am/p/CqB1P15vMwi/
