Why has a phone company launched its own branded beer? Good question. Mobile phone maker Nothing, the company that makes the Android Nothing Phone 2 with its flashing lights, partnered with UK brewery Freetime to produce a rice lager. Staying true to the company’s minimalist aesthetic, the beer is simply called “beer (5.1%)” and comes in pure white cans with Nothing’s dot-matrix style font.
So what’s it taste like? It’s good. Full flavored, malty and very drinkable. I’m glad I ordered several packs. My favorite thing about it? If someone asks me what I was drinking last night, I can honestly reply “Nothing.” It’s available only in the UK and in limited quantities, and whether it gets a wider release remains to be seen.
