I REALLY like the erdinger alkoholfrei stuff, the falvour is nice, combined with the fact its been given out free at all my best races this year means that as soon as I drink some it takes me back to finish line satisfaction feelings, its annoyingly expensive though (for low alchohol beer)
@hoefla agree that ice cream is nice, the bad day was more related to eating a pile of sweets that I didn't even enjoy eating at the time, I figure if I'm going to eat stuff it should be tasty and hopefully healthy...

Erdinger alkoholfrei is on offer at Waitrose at the moment, FYI.

I just had 4 bottles delivered from ocado today for about £1.70 a bottle (500ml), I too had it post berlin half this year and for alcohol free it really is nice.
on my current nutrition plan i'm on a strict carb limit so i've not drank for a month but i figure I can afford to splurge on a bottle of this once a week after a hard session much like the post race thing you described.
will be by far the highest sugar content of anything i've eaten in a month though, averaging about 10g a day and most of that is incidental from stuff like salad. all my carbs have been high fibre stuff instead.
have lost over a stone since i started doing it though, just a shame I gained 2 stone over summer so am only halfway back to my starting point still.

I've switched my home beer to some low alcohol stuff (currently Saino's Czech 0.5% Low Alcohol lager). It tastes barely good enough to temporarily satisfy the thirst for beer, but nowhere good enough for me to have more than a couple (usually one is enough).
28 units of booze a week is (at least) 1680kcal, which is worth 1/2 lb of fat.
