Small glass red wine is ok.
As for the no - alcoholic beer any place that sells alcohol or isn't there a place in Cali called bevs they should have it.

I drink red wine every now n then. About a glass a week. Sssh don't tell anyone. Might get slammed. Actually my friend is a doctor and he said the benefits of a glass of red wine a day would actually be helpful... he's just not technically allowed to recommend it as there are no studies proving it is safe. There are no studies proving it is unsafe either. But he has to err on the side of caution. Honestly, go ahead and drink your light beer!

My doctor told me it's OK to have a glass of red wine ever so often,  but i have had too many miscarriages to even consider it, my sisters did though and there kids are fine honor students and one on her masters.its all about what makes u comfortable

Its not bad to dribk a beer during pregnancy. My aunt would drink a cold corona everytime she craved a beer. All her kids came out very normal,  very smart and so sweet. Im not saying to do it but however you feel comfortable. I crave beer all the time but i dont feel comfortable drinking it.

Try looking for an non alcoholic beer, there is a brand called Pony. It's usually sold in hispanic stores or farmers markets. Not sure if you have either of those in your area. But it's called "Malta" in general and the box will say "Pony". It has a great taste and even has vitamins. It's a non alcoholic beverage (beer). I am not necessarily a fan of drinking alcohol in my pregnancy, there are several different views on this matter but since research has enough information to help to definitely decided to stay away, that's what I have chosen to do. I am sorry I am not much help :/
