Alcohol-free lager (0.0-0.05% ABV) provides the sensory experience of lager — carbonation, hop bitterness, malt flavour — with negligible alcohol. It contains small amounts of B vitamins from the brewing process and around 50-90 kcal per 330ml can. It is a practical choice for drivers, pregnant women, those on medication, or anyone reducing alcohol intake.
Alcohol-free beers are significantly lower in calories than their alcoholic equivalents; they are a useful social option. Check labels — "alcohol-free" (0.05% ABV max) differs from "non-alcoholic" (0.5% ABV max) in UK labelling.
