I was really surprised that non alcoholic beer seems to be so special in the US (especially when trying to find a good tasting one).
In germany, while alcoholic beer is the norm on parties, when drinking to a meal or at hot summer days non- or low-alcoholic beer is served frequently in various forms.
Personally, I am a fan of wheat beer, which comes in normal (5.5%), light (3.3%) and alcohol free (0.0%). All variations have their unique but good taste. Also, beer-mix variations are popular on summer days: Wheat beer with cola, wheat beer with sprite or normal beer with sprite.
All these variations are served in exactly the same glasses and bottles as regular beer. So if you don't want to drink you can easily do so. We even have a soft drink variations served in typical beer bottles, which is also good to fit into the social norm while not drinking. Overall, you can choose taste (sweet softdrink to bitter beer) and alcohol amount quite freely.
