ENAY by Precarious Beer Project

Non-alcoholic craft beer is growing in the US and it’s not just NA only brands and big craft brands making an NA, but medium sized breweries across the US are starting to make their own too. Many times with different brands. ENAY is one launched recently by Precarious Beer Project in Virginia. Read on for our interview with them.

NA Beer For Small Breweries

Reducaholic

Reducaholic started as a way to track and document the non-alcoholic beer industry. Since 2020, Tyler, the founder has been increasingly enjoying NA Beer and substituting it for alcoholic craft beer.

Being a bit of a nerd, I built a spreadsheet of every brewery who made their own NA. Then a product finder, but others launched first, so the pivot was made to something just to promote NA Beer.

The goal is to be able to go NA local when visiting a place, or learn when a new beer/brewery launches near you. For me, local NA craft beer means I can go enjoy the local brewery and have a drink without the effects.

The site will continue to evolve. It allows the user to navigate the NA Beer scene, ordering from those who sell it directly online OR bundling it from an online retailer with others. Additionally, if the brewery has their own finder, you can find their products locally.

Finally, the site is an information portal for NA Beer fans to “nerd out” learning about how NA beer is made, and other facts about the beverage and industry.
