As a native Norwegian[1], I feel confident in stating that "No
beer!" would be "Kein Bier!", and I believe "No beer for me, thank you, I'm driving." would be "Kein bier für mich, bitte. Ich fahre Auto.". That last one's a stretch of my capabilities, though.
We were occupied by the Germans during WWII. Not that it did much
good to the average Norwegian's German, but I took the time to
actually pay attention in German classes.
