Back in 2023 we covered the rise of Non-Alcoholic beers (The Rise of Non-Alcoholic Beer: A Guide to the Best Non Alcoholic Brews) and in the time since then, the non-alcoholic craft beer (and beer and other drinks as well) market has only boomed. So I felt like it was time to expand the original article and show how the trends have changed (or mostly in this case just exploded) and just how popular this market has become.

Non-alcoholic beer has continued its meteoric rise, with the market expected to expand by 4% volume CAGR through 2028. This growth is driven by increasing health consciousness, changing social norms, and significant improvements in taste and variety. Let’s explore the latest trends and top picks for non-alcoholic beers in 2025.

Market Trends

Expanding Availability

Non-alcoholic beer is becoming increasingly accessible. In the UK, 86% of pubs now offer a no-or-low beer option, with draught options expected to grow significantly. Major airlines have also started carrying NA beer, expanding its reach to new consumers.

The trend of expanding availability is particularly evident in the airline industry, with multiple carriers introducing non-alcoholic beer options. JetBlue became the first major U.S. airline to offer non-alcoholic beer on domestic flights, partnering with Athletic Brewing to serve their Upside Dawn Golden ale. Similarly, Alaska Airlines has introduced Best Day Brewing’s Kölsch as a complimentary option in premium classes. The growth extends beyond airlines and pubs, with retail sales showing significant momentum. According to recent data, dollar sales for non-alcoholic beer increased by 29.2%, reaching nearly $368.7 million, while case sales were up 20.3%. This expansion is driven by increasing consumer demand for healthier beverage alternatives and more inclusive drinking options, signaling a broader cultural shift towards non-alcoholic alternatives.

Technological Advancements

Brewing technology has made significant strides, addressing previous issues with bland or off-flavors. Innovations in yeast strains, vacuum distillation, and membrane filtration have allowed brewers to create non-alcoholic beers that closely mimic their alcoholic counterparts.

Mainstream Acceptance

Non-alcoholic beer is no longer viewed as a niche product. Large breweries and craft players alike are expanding their non-alcoholic offerings, with some even creating zero-proof versions of their flagship beers. Social acceptance has grown, with surveys indicating that consumers increasingly view non-alcoholic beer as “cool” or “respectable”.

Craft Breweries Embracing Non-Alcoholic Beer

Craft breweries have finally embraced the non-alcoholic trend, leveraging new brewing and de-alcoholizing technologies to create flavorful options. This shift has expanded the variety and quality of non-alcoholic craft beers available to consumers.

Health and Wellness Focus

The non-alcoholic beer market is benefiting from the growing focus on fitness and wellness. These beers offer a way for health-conscious individuals to enjoy the taste of beer without the negative effects of alcohol. Many brands are also developing lower-calorie and “better-for-you” options to cater to this demographic.

Sustainability in Non-Alcoholic Brewing

Sustainability has become a crucial aspect of the beer industry, including non-alcoholic options. Consumers increasingly favor brands that demonstrate responsible brewing practices, such as using solar power, adopting local sourcing, or implementing “farm-to-glass” ingredient strategies.

The Future of Non-Alcoholic Beer

As we move through 2025, the non-alcoholic beer market is poised for continued growth and innovation. With improving taste profiles, expanding distribution, and changing consumer preferences, non-alcoholic beer is cementing its place as a mainstream beverage option. Whether you’re participating in Dry January, looking for healthier alternatives, or simply enjoy the taste without the alcohol, there’s never been a better time to explore the world of non-alcoholic beer.

Non-alcoholic beer is a great option for those who are looking to cut back on their alcohol consumption or simply want to try something new. With a wide variety of flavors and brands available, there’s a non-alcoholic beer out there for everyone. Consider trying one of our top picks to experience the flavor and refreshment of beer without the alcohol. Cheers to healthier drinking habits!

Momentum Brewery Proudly Debuts Two Ground-Breaking Near-Beers: Golden and Hazy IPA https://thebeerthrillers.com/2024/01/02/momentum-brewery-proudly-debuts-two-ground-breaking-near-beers-golden-and-hazy-ipa/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=momentum-brewery-proudly-debuts-two-ground-breaking-near-beers-golden-and-hazy-ipa Wed, 03 Jan 2024 01:25:00 +0000 https://thebeerthrillers.com/?p=13552 Momentum Brewery Proudly Debuts Two Ground-Breaking Near-Beers: Golden and Hazy IPA

Momentum Brewery has recently stomped its footprint in the non-alcoholic beverage category with the debut of two ground-breaking near-beers: Momentum Golden and Momentum Hazy IPA. The New York-based company is seeking to revolutionize the craft beer experience by canning the best tasting non-alcoholic brews that can be savored by anyone at any given moment. 

Relying on tried-and-true recipes formulated by renowned German brewmaster Alexander Himburg and crafted at the award-winning Great South Bay Brewery in Bay Shore, New York, these beers promise to deliver all the flavor and taste one would expect from a great beer without the alcohol content. In addition, their premium “hoppy” beverages contain 50% fewer calories than their competitors.

As individuals opt for healthier and mindful drinking choices, the demand for non-alcoholic beverages has skyrocketed. Consumers are no longer content with lackluster options; instead, they seek flavorful alternatives that can elegantly balance taste and health benefits. Momentum Brewery’s new process caters precisely to this growing market by offering non-alcoholic beers that don’t compromise on flavor or quality.

Himburg, a technical German brewer from the innovative HimburgsBraukunstkeller, is setting the bar for what non-alcoholic beer is supposed to look like and taste like thanks to the use of bold techniques and secret ingredients. These unique recipes draw out the dankest oils from the choicest hops to create flavors and aromas once reserved for medal-worthy ales and lagers. Himburg’s proprietary method ensures each tank is kissed to perfection; quality controlled in every single batch. 

Momentum Brewery is strongly backed by industry veterans Lars Dahlhaus and Wolfgang Menzel and their three decades worth of combined expertise in the beverage industry. They are forward-thinking brand ambassadors who share an unrelenting vision for growing Momentum into the country’s largest non-alcoholic beverage producer.

Renowned German Brewmaster Brings Proprietary Method to N/A Beverage Category

Why? Because their product tastes better than anything else on the market. It is brewed to a higher standard. And their insights into consumer preferences and market trends have shaped the brewery’s offerings, ensuring they cater to the evolving needs of non-alcoholic beverage enthusiasts.

“It takes an exceptional brewing talent to create non-alcoholic beers that can rival their alcoholic counterparts,” Dahlhaus said. “Alexander Himburg, a renowned German brewmaster, has meticulously formulated Momentum Brewery’s craft non-alcoholic brews. Produced at the Great South Bay Brewery, the location’s rich brewing history further enhances the quality and character of our beverages.”

Their mission to create non-alcoholic brews that perfectly complement different moments of consumption, whether it be in private as a post-workout treat or in a lively social setting as a suitable substitute for real beer. The brewery’s first release – Non-Alcoholic Golden – is packed with invigorating flavors and an ideal balance, meant to provide a refreshing thirst-quencher after a workout or outdoor adventure. Meanwhile, their second release – Non-Alcoholic Hazy IPA – was brewed for socializing with friends at upscale restaurants and bars, thanks to an enticing aroma along with a hop-forward flavor and smooth texture. 

With an experienced team in tow, Momentum Brewery is primed for aggressive growth and recognition. The brewery has partnered with expanding distributor ProofNoMore — the largest non-alcoholic marketplace in the country — to guarantee nationwide distribution and accessibility. This strategic move will enable Momentum to reach a broader audience of health-conscious consumers while establishing its presence within the booming non-alcoholic beverage market.

Momentum Brewery is currently crowdfunding on IndieGoGo and is available for pre-order online at ProofNoMore.com. Initial distribution will focus on retailers across the New York metro area, and the Great South Bay Brewery will exclusively feature Momentum N/A Beers at their taprooms.

Sierra Nevada’s Trail Pass Non-Alcoholic Beer https://thebeerthrillers.com/2024/01/02/sierra-nevadas-trail-pass-non-alcoholic-beer/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=sierra-nevadas-trail-pass-non-alcoholic-beer Tue, 02 Jan 2024 16:04:35 +0000 https://thebeerthrillers.com/?p=13566 It’s taken Sierra Nevada five years to test and develop ‘Trail Pass’, their non – alcoholic beer.

Sierra Nevada’s Trail Pass starts a new adventure in non-alcoholic brewing. After more than 5 years of development, and propelled by an innovative yeast strain, the iconic brewery believes Trail Pass IPA and Trail Pass Golden will turn heads.

Trail Pass Non-Alcoholic Brews – Untappd Blog

Just in time for Dry January. A yearly tradition for some people to get back in shape or to curb and moderate themselves after the excess of the end of year holidays (from Thanksgiving to Christmas to New Years Eve/Day).

Dry January is also the bane of most craft breweries. A lull in their years, with people not drinking as much, not having as much disposable income due to the holidays, and with travel down due to weather, etc.

If a craft drinker is looking for that non-alcoholic option, but still wants a complete beer experience, this is gonna do it for them.

James Conery, Innovation Brewmaster at Sierra Nevada

Sierra Nevada Brewing uses traditional method, not alcohol extraction to brew Trail Pass. This creates a more full and bold flavor, and they are still able to dial it in to under 0.5% ABV (which is where most non-alcohol beers reside).

There are two Trail Pass variants. The citrus and pine forward Trail Pass IPA and the biscuity malt and smooth forward Trail Pass Golden.

Sierra Nevada Trail Pass is currently available online, shipping to select states. Find it in stores nationwide beginning January 2024.

Surly Releasing Outlook Good Hoppy Non-Alcoholic https://thebeerthrillers.com/2023/12/26/surly-releasing-outlook-good-hoppy-non-alcoholic/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=surly-releasing-outlook-good-hoppy-non-alcoholic Tue, 26 Dec 2023 16:58:45 +0000 https://thebeerthrillers.com/?p=13388 Surly Releasing Outlook Good Non-Alcoholic Hoppy Pale

We know Dry January is coming up soon, so many people are looking at Non – Alcoholic alternatives. (See our article: The Rise of Non-Alcoholic Beer: A Guide to the Best Non Alcoholic Brews)

Surly Brewing has just the new (non-alcoholic) beer option for you!

From their press release:

At Surly,

we’ve frequently been asked when we’ll make an N/A. Our answer has been consistent: When we can make one that tastes good. It’s not easy! If you’ve dabbled in them, you know what we mean.

We’re beyond fortunate to have a brewing team that can tackle this problem, use advances in brewing technology and ingredients, and R&D solutions until we arrive at Outlook Good Hoppy Pale, Surly’s first ever non-alcoholic beer.

Outlook Good delivers the sturdy malt backbone and aromatic hop profile any craft beer enthusiast would want from a full-flavored pale ale, absent the alcohol. Lifestyle changes are hard! The beer should at least taste good, you know?

Outlook Good joins Surly’s impressive portfolio of non-alcoholic beverages. Our Sparkling Hop Water uses the Citra and Mosaic hops that power our legendary Axe Man IPA, and our line of Take Five and Double Take THC beverages are ideal for those who’ve adopted the “California sober” lifestyle. You can find it 6-packs of 12 oz. cans in all Surly markets beginning the week of December 18th.

Surly Brewing Company – Press Release: Outlook Good (Non-Alcoholic Hoppy Pale)

Met Outlook Good Non-Alcoholic Hoppy Pale

Lets get to meet Outlook Good Non-Alcoholic Hoppy Pale. Breaking down Outlook Good:

  • Hops: Citra, Mosaic, Warrior
  • Malt: Golden Promise, Vienna, Carafoam, Acidulated, Honey Malt
  • Yeast: Lallemand Lona
  • Pour: Amber
  • Bitterness: Medium
  • ABV: < 0.5%

(All non-alcoholic beers have some level of alcohol, typically below the 1% threshold. This is why they are not considered craft beverages or sodas but are instead listed as non-alcoholic beers.)

Surly Brewing Co

Here is an article we’ve previously written about Surly Brewing Co:

For More Information on Surly Brewing Co

The following comes from Untappd. Surly Brewing Company is a regional brewery from Minneapolis, MN. They have 646 unique beers and over 1.5 Million ratings, with a global average rating of 3.91 (as of 12.26.23). Their Untappd description reads: You do enough settling. That’s part of life. You owe it to yourself to drink a beer that doesn’t settle. Not settling drives Surly. It’s what drove us to convert a suburban Minneapolis abrasives factory to a brewery in 2004. It’s what drove Surly’s owner, Omar Ansari, to go bar to bar, asking them to carry our beer. It’s what drove us to earn medals from the Great American Beer Festival and Best Brewery in America honors. It’s what drove us to change a Minnesota law that had been on the books since Prohibition. It’s what drove us to build a state-of-the-art destination brewery in the heart of the Twin Cities in 2014 featuring a massive beer hall, pizza place, outdoor beer garden, company store and event center. And it’s what drives us today. Surly’s not for everyone. It’s for you.
