Grüvi is a Denver, Colorado-based non-alcoholic beverage brand founded in 2019 by brother-and-sister duo Niki and Anika Sawni. The minority-owned, family-run company set out to make non-alcoholic drinks feel fun and appealing rather than an afterthought, spanning a fuller range than most NA brands: craft beer plus sparkling and still wines.
The beer lineup includes the flagship Golden Era lager (brewed to less than 0.5% ABV), the Juicy Dayz IPA, a Weekday Wit and a Mocha Moment nitro stout, while the wine side covers a 0.0% Dry Secco, Bubbly Rosé, Sangria and a Red Blend. The Golden Era lager earned a Gold Medal in the non-alcoholic beer category at the 2022 World Beer Cup, and other products have picked up recognition at competitions including the International Wine & Spirit Competition and the San Francisco World Beer Competition.
In September 2021 Grüvi raised $2.0 million in seed funding in a round led by Rockies Venture Club, with participation from Maple Leaf Angels, Head & Heart Capital and others, to fuel expansion. The brand has since grown to thousands of retail doors across the U.S. and Canada, with distribution in retailers such as Whole Foods Market and Total Wine.

“We envisioned Grüvi to be the complete opposite of NA bevs available at the time. Breathing life and energy into the category and giving consumers better options were important to us.”— Anika Sawni, Co-Founder of GrüviDry Atlas, Q&A with Anika Sawni →
Where to drink Grüvi
16 verified venues pour Grüvi.
Grey Tiger
Bloordale
Grey Tiger is a cocktail bar and bottle shop on Bloor Street West in Toronto's Bloordale neighbourhood, described by blogTO's Amy Carlberg as "an artist-run cocktail bar for new romantics." Its printed menu carries a dedicated "Path of Temperance" section of four full-price, zero-proof cocktails made with the same technique — vermouths, shrubs, bitters and acids — as the rest of the list. The attached bottle shop stocks a dedicated non-alcoholic collection, including bottles from Gruvi.
Maison Selby
St. James Town (bordering Cabbagetown / South Rosedale)
Maison Selby is a French bistro, café and cocktail bar from Toronto's Oliver & Bonacini restaurant group, set inside the 136-year-old Gooderham mansion at Bloor and Sherbourne in St. James Town. Built in 1883 for one of Toronto's wealthiest families - the Gooderhams of Gooderham & Worts, the distillery that later became the Distillery District - the building now holds multiple dining rooms, a patio, and the basement Bar Sous Sol. The official menu carries a dedicated "Zero-proof Cocktails" section with five priced, non-alcoholic drinks, including a Raspberry Pepper Mojito and sangrias built on Grüvi sangria and alcohol-free Chardonnay.
Post Office Place
Downtown (Market Street)
Opened in June 2018 by Takashi and Tamara Gibo — the team behind the acclaimed Takashi sushi next door — Post Office Place is an intimate craft cocktail bar that shares an entrance with the restaurant on Market Street. Known for a deep Japanese whisky list and a James Beard Foundation Outstanding Bar Program semifinalist nod in 2023, it also keeps one of the most thorough printed non-alcoholic menus in Salt Lake City. The dedicated NA menu itemizes a bottled St. Agrestis Phony Negroni, Athletic NA beers, Gruvi Sparkling Rosé, and build-your-own zero-proof cocktails on Spiritless (Kentucky 74, Jalisco 55), Dhōs Gin, and Monday Zero whisky — plus a bespoke "Bartender Roulette" the team crafts to order. In 2026 the bar was named Salt Lake magazine's Best Restaurant alongside its Takashi omakase collaboration.
Sobr Market (Danforth)
Danforth Village
Sobr Market's Danforth location is a fully alcohol-free bottle shop in Toronto's Danforth Village, just east of Coxwell Avenue and outside the Greektown strip proper. It's a franchise of the Sobr Market chain — which also runs Toronto stores at The Well and Summerhill — opened in 2025 and run by owner Jenn. Every product on the shelves is zero-proof: non-alcoholic wine, beer, spirits and ready-to-drink cocktails, curated into vegan, organic, gluten-free, kosher and halal selections.
Andros Taverna
Logan Square
Andros Taverna is chef Doug Psaltis's Greek restaurant on Milwaukee Avenue in Logan Square, built around a wood fire, mezze and slow-roasted lamb, and its drinks menu carries a dedicated Zero Proof section priced at a flat $14 - the same tier as the low-ABV cocktails and only three dollars under the full-proof list. The section holds four drinks: a St Agrestis Phony Negroni, a Ghia Spritz labeled Lime and Salt, the Root and Bloom built from Seedlip Grove with tonic and lime, and an NA 75 of passionfruit and Roots non-alcoholic vermouth. A Gruvi Golden Lager is stocked at $10 for anyone who wants a beer with the grill. The program has been part of the restaurant since its early days and has grown rather than shrunk.
Death & Co
RiNo
Death & Co Denver is the second outpost of the New York cocktail bar, opened in 2018 inside The Ramble Hotel in Denver's River North Art District. Founders David Kaplan, Alex Day and Ravi DeRossi opened the original Death & Co in a windowless Manhattan room in 2007, where it helped lead the modern craft cocktail movement. The Denver location is a multi-bar complex within the boutique hotel: the marquee lobby bar with 1930s decor and plush velvet seating, the DC/AM coffee and brunch bar serving 7am to 3pm daily, the seasonal outdoor Garden, and Suite 6A, a mezzanine lounge overlooking the lobby bar. The bar keeps a standing Zero Proof section on its Denver menu, currently the Vibe Shift, Porch Swing, Business Casual and Cap Gun, alongside non-alcoholic wine and beer. Opening bar manager Alex Jump, since departed to open The Peach Crease Club, is widely credited as a founding figure of Denver's modern non-alcoholic bar scene.
Death & Co Los Angeles
Arts District, DTLA
Death & Co Los Angeles is the first West Coast location of the cocktail brand founded in New York's East Village on New Year's Eve 2006, and it opened in the Arts District of downtown Los Angeles at the end of 2019 from the Death & Co team of David Kaplan, Alex Day and Devon Tarby with Ravi DeRossi — the same group behind the Normandie Club, Bibo Ergo Sum and the Walker Inn. The main room runs a seasonal menu organised into six sections, from the lightest and most refreshing through the most spirituous, with zero-proof drinks treated as one of those sections rather than an appendix; a separate walk-up Standing Room bar operates Thursday to Saturday. The zero-proof list currently holds three built cocktails at $16–$18 on genuine non-alcoholic spirits including Seedlip, Ritual, Giffard and Wilderton, backed by non-alcoholic wine and beer from NON, Lyre's, Athletic and Suntory.
Dew Drop Inn
Uptown
Dew Drop Inn is a women-owned gastropub at 17th and Downing in Denver's Uptown neighborhood, opened in 2021 by the team behind two of Denver's classic dive bars — the Horseshoe Lounge and the Embassy Tavern. Named Westword's Best New Bar in 2022, the venue blends a neighborhood-bar warmth (all-day $8 beer-and-shot specials, two daily happy hours running open–6pm and 10pm–close) with a serious gastropub program: Bangkok-style mussels, charcuterie, muffuletta, fried chicken, with 85% of the menu prepared gluten-free. The bar runs a named non-alcoholic program called 'clear-headed cocktails' — six rotating NA cocktails alongside two NA beers and a non-alcoholic prosecco, called out by 303 Magazine in their 2025 Sober Summer mocktail roundup. Named NA selections include the Be Nice (NA gin, lavender bitters) and the Cosmonaught (orange liqueur, cranberry, citrus). The space — tiger-print wallpaper, exposed brick, long wooden bar — is consciously designed to 'make regulars,' a philosophy the founding team has carried through 20 years of Denver hospitality.
GB's Bottle Shop & Tasting Bar
Ivanhoe Village
A craft beer, wine, and mead retailer and taproom in Orlando's Ivanhoe Village with one of the city's deepest non-alcoholic beer selections. Alongside its full-strength inventory it stocks roughly two dozen rotating NA beers from Athletic Brewing, Best Day Brewing, Gruvi, and others - both to-go and on the tasting bar.
Life on Mars
Capitol Hill
Life on Mars is a plant-based cocktail bar at Pike and Harvard on Capitol Hill, opened in June 2019 by KEXP DJ John Richards, Amy Lindsey Richards, Leigh Sims and Neumos co-owner Steven Severin. It has a 6,000-record vinyl wall, a covered patio, an all-vegan kitchen and one of the most developed non-alcoholic menus in Seattle — a programme that dates to January 2022, when the bar reopened with nine zero-proof cocktails for Dry January. The section is headed "N/A and Low ABV Cocktails", and the naming matters: these are not all 0%. Pathfinder Spritz (0.03%, $14) has been on the list since 2019; High Violet (0.03%, $15) uses Pathfinder with Almave Ambar and blueberry coffee syrup; Mesmerize (0.1%, $13) is black-pepper-infused Pathfinder with lemon lapsang oleo; the canned Pathfinder Negroni is 0.5% at $14; and Two of Hearts is printed at 0.12–2.98% ABV, so it is genuinely low-alcohol rather than alcohol-free. The menu's own disclaimer notes all N/A spirits may contain trace alcohol. Every drink credits its creator and year. 21+ inside and out.
Martina
Linden Hills
Martina is the Linden Hills restaurant that launched Daniel del Prado as a Twin Cities restaurateur, an Argentinian-Italian room on Upton Avenue with a bar programme that has been taken seriously since Marco Zappia set it up in 2018. Its non-alcoholic cocktails are listed on the same menu as the full-strength ones at $12 and rotate with the seasons: a Tropical on passion fruit, mango and lime with carbonation; an Apollo built on a non-alcoholic berry amaro with masala chai and lime; and a Lemongrass with ginger, galangal and lemon verbena. ISH sparkling rose and Gruvi's Juicy Dayz non-alcoholic IPA round out the zero-proof options.
Red Feather Lounge
Downtown (8th Street)
Red Feather Lounge on the 8th Street pedestrian block builds its alcohol-free drinks with the same technique as its cocktails, which shows most clearly in Well Orange You Sophisticated — orange vanilla syrup, lime and egg white foam. The foam is the detail worth noticing: it requires a hard shake and adds real time to the build, and it is the first thing most bars quietly drop from a zero-proof order. There is also I Know a Tiki When I See One, a pineapple, almond orgeat, cinnamon and lime build, and Dorothy, made with lavender soda and dry secco. It sits on the pedestrianised 8th Street block and runs to 1:30am on Friday and Saturday, later than almost anything else in this guide.
