Non-Alcoholic Beer
14 brands
Non-alcoholic beer has gone from an afterthought to one of the fastest-growing categories in drinks. Modern NA brewers either brew full beer and gently strip the alcohol out, or use specialized yeasts that never make much in the first place — and the best results are genuinely hard to tell from the full-strength versions.

Non-alcoholic spirits are the backbone of a serious zero-proof cocktail program. Rather than imitate a soda, they recreate the aroma, bite, and structure of gin, whiskey, agave, or an Italian aperitif so a Negroni or margarita actually reads as a cocktail.

Not every great non-alcoholic drink needs a bartender. Ready-to-drink mocktails and NA apéritifs and mixers deliver bar-level complexity straight from the can or bottle — bittersweet spritzes, shrub-based sodas, and botanical apéritifs built on real juices, herbs, and spices instead of sugar syrup.

A newer corner of the non-alcoholic world skips cocktail mimicry entirely. "Functional" drinks are built around adaptogens, nootropics, and botanicals — ingredients like ashwagandha, L-theanine, lion's mane, and reishi — marketed for mood, focus, or winding down rather than replacing a specific spirit. They sit somewhere between a drink and a wellness product.

Non-alcoholic wine has the hardest job in the zero-proof world: alcohol carries much of wine's body, warmth, and aroma, so simply removing it leaves an obvious hole. The category's answer is to make real wine first — fermented from real grapes, sometimes barrel-aged — and then strip the alcohol out as gently as technology allows.
