Does anyone have any recommendations for the alcohol free wine/beer?

I have given up alcohol for lent, and we are ttc so I am looking for something nice to make me still think i am getting a treat!

I have tried the becks blue beer, but would be interested if anyone had tried any wines?

Bitberger Drive is a pretty good alcohol free lager available from Tescos. Ariel Californian Merlot is a really nice acohol free Red Wine but I've always had to order it on line.

Think this may be what you are looking for

http://www.eisberg.co.uk/

It really isn't too bad and you can just about convince yourself that it is real alcohol.

I've tried the Chardonnay, Riesling and Cabernet Sauvignon not tried the Rose yet and found them ok actually have a bottle of the Riesling in the fridge at the moment.

Think you can get it in most supermarkets now certainly have seen it in Morrisons so you could give that a try.

I like Becks Blue, missus has been drinking it while pregnant.

Non-alcoholic wine doesn't really taste like wine to me.

The Eisberg stuff is the closest in taste that I've found so far depends how into your wine you are though I guess.

I drink fairly cheap wine, about the £5 a bottle mark, but I find Eisberg tastes like pop.

The best one by a mile is Erdinger Alc Frei. Would struggle to tell it a part from the real stuff.

Also my recommendation. They're close to the real thing.
