Noun: London police slang for a crummy dive in which unwitting male tourists are promised a good time with a hot babe. They must order a drink from these unlicenced premises but get charged hundreds of pounds for a soft drink. Victims are often frog-marched to cash machines by heavies. Needless to say, the babe doesn't provide any action, just sits there.
Drink your tea, were going to bust a near beer in Brewer Street.
OK, Shall I grab a Transit van and 2 Serbo-Croat translators?
The Kinks classic 'Lola' is set in a near-beer.
I Met her in a club down in old Soho
Where they drink champagne and it tastes just like cherry-cola...
...Lo-Lo-Lo-Lo-Lola.

n. Any light beer. Especially American lagers. Light beers that can be drank in relatively large quantity without much intoxication.
I'm driving later, can you pass me one of those near beers out of the cooler? (e.g., a Coors Light)
I drank like ten near beers this afternoon, but I'm still gonna go out tonight.
Dude if your wife gives you crap about bringing alcohol into the house just make it clear your drinkin' near beers. Nobody cares about a couple peebers.
