That's why I find the power of ads and marketing truly fearsome. Why buy alcohol free alcoholic beverages?

If you like the taste but don't want the negative parts, or if you don't want alcohol but want to feel "included" ( e.g. muslims, recovering alcoholics or just people who don't like getting "buzzed").

Included?

If you've made the choice to not drink, is the next logical step to buy a non-alcoholic alcoholic beverage?

Seems a bit more than silly.

If you're with a group of people who drink alcoholic beverages, and you want to fit it, a non-alcoholic beer is probably better than a juice.

It does taste nice and goes well with many foods.

When Lithuania banned sales on Sunday after 3PM the sales of it skyrocketed. IIRC NZ grown 100% lately too. Many people choose it when they drive.

I like my 9% IPA's but when I have to drive or there's bbq party middle of the day I'll go for low alcohol ones.
