Beck's Blue review
#47 of 47
Our take: Fine in a pinch, but there are better cans for the money. Alcohol Change UK gives it 1/5; Which? blind tasters scored it 58%; drinkers rate it 2.41/5 across 34,919 ratings, below the alcohol-free average on Untappd.
Beck's Blue is an alcohol-free German-style pilsner brewed by Brauerei Beck in Bremen from barley malt, hops, yeast and water. It goes through the same brewing process as Beck's before the alcohol is removed.
Who it's for
- Lager drinkers who want something crisp and familiar
- Anyone who needs a true 0.0%, like drivers or during pregnancy (check with your midwife)
- Calorie counters
Skip it if
- You are coeliac (it contains gluten)
- You want big flavour: drinkers find it light
Try instead: Estrella Damm Alcohol Free (0.0%), #5 in our ranking.
