As we know, non-alcoholic and low ABV beverages are trending in the world right now. Millennials and Gen Z are cutting back on hard alcohol, increasing a demand for low and non-alcoholic beverages. To meet this gap in the market, beer companies are introducing non-alcoholic beers that taste similar to their alcoholic signature brews. These beers have to be bottled at less than 0.5% ABV to be considered non-alcoholic.
