Drinking non-alcoholic drinks

Q: Is it permissible to drink non-alcoholic drinks (0% alcohol) which have the same name as traditional alcohols and are branded similar to the original alcoholic drink. The reason I ask is because there are many of these drinks now. E.g. There is a drink called "Lager" which has the name, logo and appearance of the original alcoholic drink but is non-alcoholic.

Giving food away that one would not eat oneself

Q: I am a student who went home for lockdown. My electricity had tripped approximately 15 hours prior to my return. My freezer stuff was not frozen, however it was room temperature and I now have doubts whether I can give it away to someone else as I am not sure if its okay for consumption. I know it is sinful and wasteful to throw away food and it is also sinful to give away food that you would not eat yourself. What do I do?

Neighbours giving one haraam food

Q: Our Muslim neighbours offered my husband chicken biryani but we were not sure if the chicken was halaal or not since we've seen them before buying non halaal chicken but they argue that its halaal. We removed the chicken from the biryani and ate the rice but we felt bad about it. What must be done in such situations?
