I like both alcoholic beer and non-alcoholic beer, but if it’s 0% it needs to taste like its own thing. I’ve had 0% beer where you can tell they’re trying to taste like there’s still alcohol in it and it’s never that great. If you can’t have alcohol I get it, but for me, it turns me off from the beer.
Corona Sunbrew is an example of a 0% beer that doesn’t have that fake alcohol taste to it. I’m moving away from lagers a bit now to expand my tastes so I don’t drink Sunbrew anymore but my wife drinks it and I’ll have a sip from time to time and it’s actually good. It doesn’t taste like it’s trying to fake being an alcoholic drink. It’s not the perfect beer or anything but it tastes like 0% beer without tasting like a cheap knockoff.
German alcohol-free beers contain exactly the same ingredients as regular beer minus alcohol, most of them are just regular beers treated with vaccum destillation and/or filtration. IMO the alcohol is practically tasteless at that ABV anyway.

How should it taste like alcohol?? Aroma?
Alcohol free beer is fermented malt and hop and stuff, if it has a lot of hop it works
I’ve found many 0% drinks to try and add the warm/burning feeling that you get from alcohol and it never works well.
Where? Also beer doesn’t have the alcohol burn. Or are you drinking some kind of Eisbock with 14%?
