It is called Ginger Beer cause it is similar to the name A&W Root Beer and that contains no alcohol as well. Since it contains no alcohol it would taste better.

Ginger beer is a drink originating from England, where sugar, ginger, water, and sometimes lemon were fermented and brewed with a starter culture called the ginger beer plant, resulting in a brew with about 11 percent alcohol.

Can you get drunk on ginger beer?

Yes. Ginger Beer is made from ginger, water, sugar, lemon juice and a rather special bacterial-fungal symbiote known, unsurprisingly, as the Ginger Beer Plant. It ferments up to 11% alcohol. However, most things called ginger beer today are soft drinks, and i don't think there's a single alcoholic Ginger Ale on the market. The difference between ginger ale and ginger beer is huge.
