nipke

The term "nipke" most commonly refers to a brand of non-alcoholic beer produced by the Norwegian brewery Ringnes. It is available in various formulations, including standard and flavored versions. Ringnes is a subsidiary of Carlsberg Group.

Historically, "nipke" may have also been used as a colloquialism in some regions for a small quantity of alcoholic beverage, particularly spirits, akin to a nip. However, this usage is less prevalent today and often superseded by more specific terms. The modern association of "nipke" is overwhelmingly with the non-alcoholic beer product. The brand has been part of the Norwegian beverage market for a significant period, and its name has become synonymous with non-alcoholic beer for many consumers in Norway.
