There was a short-lived low-carb beer in the late 60s,
long before low-carb became a trend. I remember
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

The definition of non-intoxicating beer was changed from 0.5% alcohol
to 3.2% by Act of Congress in 1933. "Near beer" has no legal
significance. Why do people blow out their asses, indeed.

Sure, make up your own terms and criticize people when they don't
agree with your definitions. Anything to help your self-esteem.

"Near beer," indeed.
