My wife actually prefers Clausthaler Amber over their green bottle style. I see that Grand Central does have a fair selection of craft brews so I would be ok there. Maybe they just got a great deal on the N/A umbrellas.
I guess it's easier for a beer bar to stock decent N/A brews than for a brewpub. It would seem that with all these N/A brews being imported, someone in the US craft industry would step up to the plate.

BahHumBrew: Never knew about that Erdinger, I'll look for it.

About 20 years ago I quit drinking for a year, and my favorite was Clausthaler, but I would sometimes go for a Buckler or Texas Select (this was in Austin), they were cheaper.

A nursing mother brought some Clausthaler to a party on our block this summer, it's actually pretty good. Kind of Grolschy in those green bottles.

It that Jeff Alworth's house? :-O

Kaliber is her favorite. She's also partial to Haake Beck and Erdinger Weissbier. Many of the other imports are acceptable but she hasn't found a US made N/A that's better than iced tea or water. It would be nice if one of the US craft brewers would produce a decent N/A beer.

BahHumBrew: What are some of your wife's favorite N/A choices? I agree with you, it would be nice to have good non-alcoholic beer options.

I think it's sad when a brewpub does not offer a decent N/A option. I enjoy brews with alcohol but my wife cannot drink them. She often requests a N/A brew and either gets nothing or a Macro N/A (she'd rather drink water). However, there are many imported N/A brews that have flavor and she enjoys them. While St Pauli Girl is not her favorite, we would definitely stop at this pub. I would hope that they have several decent craft brews on tap as well.
