There was something called Dansk I think, came out before Kaliber, it was 0.5% alcohol or something, whereas Kaliber was 0% alcohol, so Billy Connoly told us in the adverts.
I don't mind it myself, not so sure about the Radlers, as for the alcohol free stuff, I prefer to drink this sort of thing when I have to drive, rather than Coke/Sprite/Orange Juice etc.
As for whether people like it or not, there must be things you like that others don't. Whilst I agree...
