Accountability research

For this research we posted a post in the Facebook group Beer Geeks and we asked beer drinkers for their opinion in an email and via social media. We asked about the top 3 of the tastiest non-alcoholic beer (max 0.5% alcohol and not limited to the Netherlands).

 

A total of 90 people responded to our call. These people have named 3 non-alcoholic beers that they currently like best.  

​

For the result we gave the number 1 of the lists 3 points, number 2 received 2 points and number 3 we gave 1 point. In case someone mentioned only 1 beer, that beer got 1 point. If someone named 2 beers, the first beer got 2 points and the second beer got 1 point.

Conclusions

We draw a few conclusions from this research:

​

  • Playground IPA from vandeStreek is by far the best non-alcoholic beer at the moment. The number 2, Jever Fun has less than a quarter the number of points of the Playground.
     

  • There are many different non-alcoholic beers mentioned. On average, each respondent mentions at least one unique beer in their top 3.
     

  • Most of the beers mentioned come from the Netherlands (26), followed by Germany (19), Great Britain (14) and Poland (10).
