Alcohol-free beer is a beverage that resembles traditional beer but contains little to no alcohol, typically less than 0.5% alcohol by volume (ABV). It is brewed using similar ingredients, such as water, malt, hops, and yeast, but undergoes a process to remove or reduce the alcohol content. This allows people to enjoy the taste of beer without the effects of alcohol. Many breweries produce alcohol-free beer to cater to those who prefer not to consume alcohol for health, personal, or religious reasons. It is available in various styles, including lager, ale, and stout, providing options for different taste preferences.
