Ron Zac Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 I have just stated my whole30 program and cannot find an answer in the Forum about drinking or not drinking Alcohol free beer. I live in Germany where such a drink is quite popular. The only ingredients are: water, hops, hops extract and barley malt. There being no added sugar and no alcohol maybe it's an ok drink for the program. Thanks for any guidance for a beginner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Andria Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 No, this would not be compliant due to the barley malt. Barley contains gluten and that is definitely off limits on the Whole30. Not to mention this drink would likely be classified as SWYPO (Sex With Your Pants On). Edited for typo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fitisthenublack Posted July 30, 2014 Share Posted July 30, 2014 Why on earth would you even want non-alcoholic beer? What a tease Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Juice06870 Posted August 4, 2014 Share Posted August 4, 2014 Try non-alcoholic vodka - AKA water Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Julzology Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 Yes, non-alcoholic beer for me is like decaffeinated coffee; pointless. I'd rather just not drink. But maybe the NA beers in Germany are better. The options in here are gross. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AllyB Posted August 27, 2014 Share Posted August 27, 2014 I drank a little bit of non-alcholic beer when I was first pregnant and it was just a reminder of what I was missing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lyolya Posted February 2, 2015 Share Posted February 2, 2015 I, too, live in Germany and I back you on that non-alcoholic beercan be really terrific here. I even like some varieties more that their regular counterparts. However, it's definitely a SWYPO, so no, one can't drink it when doing Whole 30.

Susanrenee Posted February 3, 2015 Share Posted February 3, 2015 Lyolya....I don't think it's SWYPO...It's NOT ALLOWED because the ingredients are non-compliant. I think SWYPO are foods which are technically allowed, but could mess with your mind if you ate/drank them! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lyolya Posted February 3, 2015 Share Posted February 3, 2015 Yeah, barley. I missed it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
