The past decade has been a heady time for craft beer. The industry has steadily grown — selling more and more beer — while innovating left and right. There was that session beer boom, gluten-free beer that tasted like the real thing, hazy IPAs followed by juicy IPAs followed by milkshake IPAs culminating in … orange creamsicle IPAs? But the latest trend, booming like no other, is perhaps the wildest: Beer, sans alcohol. Yes, craft beer is having its health trend moment and fitness nuts are piling on like there’s no tomorrow. Is the recovery beer trend worth exploring? Here’s what to know.

TIPS & TRICKS

Three Non-Alcoholic Craft Beers to Drink Now

1. Lagunitas Brewing IPNA

This non-alcoholic IPA from Lagunitas has some of the best flavors you’ll find in a non-alcoholic beer. It’s bitterness is more pine-forward than citrusy and while it is significantly lighter than a regular IPA, it never breaches the “watery” threshold. It’s a great choice for hop lovers who need a break from the hard stuff.

2. Athletic Brewing Free Wave Hazy IPA

Athletic Brewing’s Free Wave Hazy IPA refreshes with a bright, flowery flavor profile. The Amarillo, Mosaic, and Chinook hops add pop to a soft, hazy wheat body with powerful citrus notes.

3. Gruvi Non-Alcoholic Stout

Grüvi’s Non-Alcoholic Stout is a dead ringer for its higher ABV brethren, with notes of chocolate, malts, and lactose. The lack of a head cuts down on the creamy mouthfeel, but the flavor is rich and dry with noticeable coffee notes.
