Actually I drank Coolberg strawberry and Ginger flavour with my siblings few days ago. I didn't had any idea it was a beer and drank it thinking it was a soda. Me (13 years), my sister (11 years) and my cousin brother (15 years) consumed it. I didn't felt anything after drinking though. It even tasted like any simple Carbonated drink. However the fact that it is a Beer is making me scared now. I knew it later from my sister, she said that our cousin said this. I didn't believed at first but then my curiosity made me search it in Google. And it turns out it is really a non alcoholic beer. Will it affect my health? And most importantly will it affect my voice badly as I'm learning to sing? I know drinking cold drinks affect voice anyways but for few hours only. There is no harm in drinking it once in a while but I fear beers may affect my voice for long term. I didn't even bothered to read the bottle. How ignorant of me 🙆
I mean, in future drinking more water is better than drinking any alcoholic or nonalcoholic drinks, because water makes your skin more moisturized and your skin will look youthful.
That’s not a problem at 13, you’re too young to worry but it might become a problem at 20.
I’ve had some friends who have a habit of drinking energetic drinks or some kind of juices when they feel thirsty and their skin is not really that good.
There’s no problem drinking things like that rarely but what I am saying is that don’t make it a habit of yours.
I once drank a wine by accident, when I was your age. Nothing happened to me. I just had normal effects of alcohol.
So I am pretty sure no alcohol one is safe.
Ans about voice - I heard alcohol can lower your voice, sometimes it may be good. But in overall drinking too much alcohol is bad for voice. I'm not sure how it looks like for non-alcoholic beers. I would say if you drink it rarely then it should be fine.
Just drink an extra glass of water and you should be fine.
Just don't be like idiotic niece who thought it was okay to sneak a shot of tequila... I spent the next like 12 hours making her guzzle water XD.
Note I say idiotic in a loving sense she is super sweet but a complete dork when it comes to anything remotely close to adult things XD. My sister still has a video of that one asking what a vibrator is LOL.
Also anyone here who says beer is unhealthy FUN FACT in the past water by itself was considered UNDRINKABLE. Most of the time it took turning water into beer or mead for it to be remotely drinkable as the yeast or honey would ferment killing bacteria in the water. AND back then they had no real way to tell how strong the alcohol would be aged to so often times things would age for 1-2 years and end up like 40 to 70% alcohol meaning even the kids would often end up geting wasted with the adults. XD.
You will never hear about a Viking, egyptian or Roman probably drinking water unless its at the very least been boiled and even then that would be like a thing only the apsolute LOWEST like cast or societal class would be doing. Were talking like live on the streets and the most expensive thing you own is maybe the wooden staff your owner gave you if you were too weak to stand on your own.
Anyone with a little bit of money would probably be brewing their own beer and or mead. Anyone who drank the normal river water or lake water probably would end up sick and found turned green or something and called cursed XD By the local medicine person. XD.
It's non-alcoholic... so of course it's safe lol. In fact beer it's self is healthy so now you've just removed the unhealthy part of beer and just left with the good stuff.
Yup and non-alcoholics tend to have less sugar and other things aswell. And to get drunk off a non would be impossible as you would die from drinking to much water before then lol. I will say though just check how low the content of alcohol if it does say. Of course the closer to 0 or 0 it's self would be the best option. I used to drink bitter shandy all the time that has alcohol in it but so low one is never ID for it as I was buying it myself from all kinds of stores at 13 without ever been stopped.
Then that's 100% healthy, quite a lot of non-alcoholics just mean very low amount tho so they can catch you off but again it's so low it don't matter. However with exactly 0 that means no chance of addiction too. Since there is an actual very very rare chance for someone to become addicted to alcohol even when it's low.
Relax, you will be fine. That's not beer, there's no alcohol in it. It's just another sugary drink. If you drank them all day you might get diabetes, but not drunk. The only thing bad for you in it is the sugar.
i tried alcohol as a kid myself. i didn't like the taste at all... but i was fine otherwise. you'll be fine too. it's an experience before you reach of age when you can legally drink it.
For me it was beer and it tasted quite refreshing. It will be hard to distinguish it with a normal Carbonated drink. I'm not drinking alcohol as an adult too. Maybe non alcoholic like this but I won't drink alcohol as an adult.
