Erdinger's alcohol free Weizen is very good, but I haven't found a "normal" alcohol free beer that tastes good.
Over here the "in" drinks are Fassbrauser (barrel fizzers would be a loose translation, Wikipedia says keg-soda), it is a fruit drink brewed in a beer barrel with malt extract. It has less than 0.5% alcohol and is very popular among younger people.

Alcohol free beer is the only beer that's given me a headache.

Recently? I know the early alcohol free beers were somewhat notorious for giving people headaches but I believe that more recent attempts have improved somewhat (although given the choice I'll stick with proper beer or just not bother at all rather than have a non-alcoholic beer).

No - I stopped trying them years ago. If I'm driving, I just order a tonic water with a slice and pretend.
