The problem of the invention is to provide a beer-like beverage with an increased resistance to the throat, though the amount of digestible-carbohydrates is reduced and it is a beer taste beverage with a reduced amount of digestible-carbohydrates. The means for solving the problem is a beer-like beverage wherein the amount of ferulic acid is 0.4-10 ppm (w/v) in concentration, the amount of digestible-carbohydrates is 2.0 g/100 mL or less in concentration, and the amount of alcohol is 10% (v/v) or less in concentration.
