At some point in a man's life — for dietary or or religious reasons, perhaps, or designated-driver duty, or to show solidarity with his pregnant wife — he will order a non-alcoholic beverage at a bar. And more than likely, that N/A drink will be a beer.

No-alcohol beer is more popular than it's been since Prohibition, with worldwide sales topping 18.7 million barrels last year. That's almost 2 billion more bottles of beer than the combined amount (13.2 million barrels) sold by all U.S. craft breweries last year. Full stop. About a third of N/A beer sales happen in the Middle East, where observant Muslims shun alcohol but want a part of the global lifestyle glamorized in beer advertising, according to the Economist.

Several of those brews, like Lebanon's Laziza 0.00% beer (available in raspberry, apple, lemon and "natural" flavors) and Saudi Arabia's Barbican (declared halal by Malaysia's National Fatwa Council can be hard to come by in the States.

But here are seven that are worth choosing if you find yourself in a position like BeerAdvocate.com user drakkath, who had this to say about Busch N/A: "I love the fact that it's canned and I can put it in my coozie and my buddies don't know that I'm drinking an N/A, but I can drive them home if I need to. By no means is this a great — hell, even a good — beer. But if you can't drink or if you are the designated driver and want that beer 'feel,' this is as close as it gets."
