The problem of the invention is to provide a beer-like alcoholic beverage with a reduced amount of digestible-carbohydrates, a reduced sensation of alcohol stimulation, and an excellent balance of beer-like flavors. The means for solving the problem is a beer-like alcoholic beverage wherein the amount of 4-vinyl guaiacol (4VG) is 10-200 ppb (w/v) in concentration, the amount of 2-acetyl-1-pyrroline (2AP) is less than 1 ppb (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 4-10% (v/v) in concentration.
