There was a short-lived low-carb beer in the late 60s,

seeing the ads in New York, but I don't remember
the name.
Some states allowed the sale of 3.2% alcohol beer to
18 year olds, while you had to be 21 to buy 6%. It was
commonly referred to as 'Near beer'.

True, but that wasn't what I was referring to.

3.2 beer is not the same as near beer. Why do people blow out their
asses? Near beer has less than 0.5% alcohol.
