Yes, it tends to be pricier. It's not addictive, so they need bigger margins that they can't make up in volume.

    It’s actually a more costly process to make non alcoholic beer, than with alcohol.

    The process? Distillation method, sure. Limited fermentation, fermentation free, and dilution are quite similar to their alcoholised counterparts.

    The ingredient/supply costs for non-alcoholic beer is more expensive; which is mostly a volume thing, but their is a portion of that related to precision required for a near-beer not required for a normal beer.
