I don't mind this. I like beer, but some styles I like can be 7% or more which is just too strong. I want to be able to enjoy the taste, not get buzzed after one beer with dinner.

I've tried the non alcoholic beers but they all have a similar off taste to them.

What's more worrying I wonder, preferring one strong beer because it's fewer overall calories per session, or wanting multiple low strength ones so you can do more drinking? I can't quite tell honestly

For me, the one strong beer is too much anymore.

I used to like the higher ABV beers, imperial stouts, etc more, but even just one of those is just.. too much. Especially getting a full pint.

For that reason I don’t mind that the high ABV options are getting toned down. This might be a case of economics and preferences moving parallel to each other.
