Neither of those statements are true. The chances of getting drunk on NA beer are equal to your chances of getting drunk on just about any kind of fruit juice. It's just not going to happen.
I know lots of people sober many years who have an NA beer from time to time. And while I know one arrogant idiot in NA that considers it a relapse, I never heard anyone in AA call it that. I've heard people advise against it, as they are doing here (myself included), but to label it a slip is not only not factual in any way whatsoever, but dangerous IMO. That's like saying if the OP decided to have an NA beer last night they might just as well go out and buy a 6 of Bud today. According to you, what's the difference?
According to me, there's a life and death difference.
