Becks . All the wine I tried made me feel really rough. Oh kop whatever al. Free pear cider. Sooo nice , I still drink it and not even pg. Anymore (typing on phone)

What's the point? I'd rather have an orange juice or something.

Lakota · 07/10/2010 17:54

Becks Blue, definitely. I still drink it now I'm not pregnant so that I can keep my alcohol units down and not feel deprived after a day with crazed toddler! Alcohol free wine is universally horrible.

Becks Blue, it actually tastes of beer!

pinkgrasshopper · 07/10/2010 17:59

Yep. Becks Blue. And the point is some people drink because they actually like the taste!!

mamasunshine · 07/10/2010 18:00

Becks blue label Smile yummy!

Poshpaws · 07/10/2010 18:02

Becks Blue and also Cobra Zero is good.

MrToad · 07/10/2010 18:02

Another vote for Becks here, the only non alcoholic beer/ wine that actually tastes like the real thing!

JeelyPiece · 07/10/2010 18:31

M&S do an alcohol free blackcurrant beer that tastes lovely and hoppy.

pinkgrasshopper · 07/10/2010 19:09

That sounds good Jeely-thanks!

Clueless79 · 07/10/2010 19:14

Alcohol free beer still has a tiny amount of alcohol though doesn't it? Is it ok to have?

jinglesticks · 07/10/2010 19:17

Nice: Becks Blue, Bitburger Drive, Erdinger alcohol free wheet beer.

Nasty: Cobra Zero (too sweet) kaliber (smells of cats wee - it really does!) any alcohol free wine.

I also don't like the pear cider, but I don't like the boozey one either

Summerbird73 · 07/10/2010 19:20

i was just coming on to say Becks Blue too! I also drink it after having DS.

And yes = a little bit of alcohol is fine to have as long as you dont get bladdered exercise common sense

Summerbird73 · 07/10/2010 19:21

Grin Summerbird

domeafavour · 07/10/2010 19:27

San Miguel 0.0%
but only ever found it in Spain Sad
there was another one that was unexpectedly palatable, will have to search for it

Clueless79 · 07/10/2010 19:29

Haha thanks, DESPERATE for a beer but was trying to hold off till 12 wks, am only on 9 and a half but wondering whether I can get away with alcohol 'free'?

Summerbird73 · 07/10/2010 19:30

i obv need some 'proper' becks Grin

gallicgirl · 07/10/2010 19:38

Sainsbury's do a lovely alcohol free sparkling white wine. Their rose is ok too but don't touch the red.

lowra · 07/10/2010 19:40

alcohol free kopperburg (cider) is yum.

Threelittleducks · 07/10/2010 19:44

I absolutely loved Schloer Bucks Fizz. They had it in my Tesco all the way through my first pg 2 years ago, and haven't seen it this time around :(

It was close to the real thing, came in a big corked bottle with a pop cork and was made with blood oranges. Yum yum!

It was a total treat, really refreshing and just felt more special than a lot of others I've tried.

Otherwise....this pg I have been guzzling Becks blue.
Nom nom nom!!!

It's funny, cuz I can guzzle at any time of day without a modicum of guilt :)

Crumplet · 07/10/2010 20:21

Drinking Becks Blue right now. I dream of it and yearn for it all day in a way that I never (well, ok very rarely) did for real booze .. oh god, I've become a Non-Alcoholic..!

howdidthishappenthen · 07/10/2010 20:25

Becks is good. All wines shit. I did extensive research when pregnant with DD1. However, a tonic water with ice and lemon can feel a (tiny) bit like a 'proper drink.

eastendmummy · 07/10/2010 20:27

Jupiler is lovely too and I bought some quite nice wine from www.alcoholfree.co.uk/

spiggy · 07/10/2010 20:28

Bavaria 0.0% is my favourite- they do a lager and a wheat beer version and after 4 1/2 years of being pg and/or bfing I've tried most of the ones around. It is available in most of the big supermarkets. Cobra 0% is ok.

Kaliber is vile.
