What oznachaet the term "beer"?
To understand whether non-alcoholic beer alcoholic beverages, you must define such a drink as beer. On the basis of articles of the law on control of circulation and of production of ethyl alcohol or any alcoholic beverages, as well as the control of the use of these products (which, by the way, there is no question about the classification of beer "non-alcoholic" and "alcoholic"), you can read that beer is an alcohol product that comprises ethanol produced during fermentation of beer wort produced by brewing malt.
