Butterbeer, served in several places throughout Harry Potter’s fabulous world, is a highly sought-after beverage among people who love the books and movies. It’s sweet, somewhat complicated, and there’s a bit of controversy over its actual alcohol content. While it doesn’t seem to have an inebriating effect on humans, you will want to keep it away from the house elves.
"Butterbeer was a popular wizarding beverage described as tasting "a little bit like less-sickly butterscotch." It was served at numerous locations in the wizarding world and had a very slight alcoholic content." -from the Harry Potter Wiki
