Rise of Craft Non-Alcoholic Beer
Consumer demand has helped increase the quality of non-alcoholic beer and the number of choices in the alcohol free beer category. With the rise in popularity of low and non alcoholic beer, NA beer craft breweries have emerged that care about the process and the ultimate flavor profile, leveraging different methods of keeping the body while removing the alcohol. While many beers may contain 0% alcohol, some described as non-alcoholic and alcohol-free contain a little alcohol – up to 0.5% ABV (alcohol by volume), which is considered alcohol-free or non-alcoholic in the US.
As non alcoholic and alcohol free beer continues to grow in demand, the brewing process and beer quality will only improve over time. The high interest in the category has launched creative NA beer options including dry hopped IPAs, citrusy Pale Ales, tart Berliner Weisse beers, and many more!

Athletic Brewing Company
Lovers of great tasting beer that live an active lifestyle. That’s the team at Athletic Brewing, who has developed a creative series of delicious non-alcoholic craft beers.
They take an artisanal approach to non-alcoholic ipa beer with all-natural ingredients. A mixture of five Northwest hops give the Run Wild IPA a balanced bitterness and the Free Wave Hazy IPA is packed with Amarillo, Citra, and Mosaic hops.
Just finished a long run? Maybe you just hammered the last few miles home on a recent bike ride. Or simply gave it your all on any activity that got you moving. Athletic Brewing has a refreshing alcohol free option to crush that post workout thirst.
Grüvi
With a focus on making alternative drinking options readily available, Grüvi is a leading producer of non-alcoholic craft beverages. Not only do they offer delicious sparkling wine, but you’ll discover a variety of flavorful alcohol free beers that are sure to satisfy any palate.
When it comes to Grüvi, we’re talking about a delightful selection of craft beer. This includes a line up of hoppy yet crushable IPA and English-Style pale ale. And if that’s not your style, they also have a crisp low gluten lager and a sour Weisse for tart, citrusy wheat beer lovers.
Grüvi’s use of aromatic hops and high quality barley pairs perfectly with their ability to deliver full bodied, non-alcoholic beers. They’re great for days out on the lake, relaxing evenings on the porch, or even gathered around a campfire with family and friends.
Busty Lush
The 100% woman-owned team behind Busty Lush Brewery is changing the idea of what a malt beverage can be. Their three part series began with "She's Golden" a blonde style ale highlighted by fruit flavors and a moderate bitterness. The upcoming release of "She's Passionate" tropical Weisse is packed with real passion fruit and dragon fruit. We're excited to see what third iteration completes this fun series, as well as how Busty Lush innovates from there.
Benefits of Non-Alcoholic Beer

Maybe you’re choosing a sober lifestyle, adapting to a keto diet, or just want a gluten free beer that actually tastes good. Whatever your reason, there are benefits to choosing a low carb or gluten free non-alcoholic beer as your go to option. The social stigma of drinking NA beers is disappearing with a new generation that is redefining the booze driven nightlife scene.
