NA beer has always tasted like sudsy water to me. If I tasted beer, I think I would want the real thing, and I think I might talk myself into it, because on many occasions I did just have a beer or two, because I enjoyed them. Problem was, it was hard to turn that off other days and I'd have more than one or two. So yeah, I do genuinely miss the taste of a nice hoppy beer, but I'm not going to risk my 3 months sober because I miss the tast. Diet Dr Pepper works just fine for me now.
