Athletic Brewing Company. Where alcohol-free does not mean taste free

If you are thinking of taking part in Dry January but are concerned not about missing out on the alcohol but on the tastes of what you would normally be drinking, then your new companion for January and beyond should be the brews produced by the Athletic Brewing Company. 

And as it's safe for vegans because it contains no animal products or by-products it's an ideal meal accompaniment for your Veganuary feasting. Also, it's great for people who suffer from coeliac disease as it is also gluten free, too. 

Established back in 2017,  the Athletic Brewing Company points out, and with considerable justification, that they brew without compromise. 

Take their Upside Dawn Golden Ale, for example. It contains under 0.5% alcohol. So is perfect for the designated driver, someone taking part in Dry January or who doesn't want to drink alcohol for whatever reason.

What about the taste? My wife, who is more of a connoisseur of Irish stouts than pale or golden pale ales like Upside Dawn has declared Upside Dawn to be "absolutely delicious." And I have to agree with her. It is one of the nicest golden ales that I have ever drunk, alcoholic or non-alcoholic.

It has a clean, nicely hoppy taste and it's clear that it has been brewed to taste good, with the non-alcoholic side being a very useful additional feature. 

It has an IBU of 15 and the taste is awesome on the tongue, with bright notes and a clarity of combined tastes.

It has a good mouthfeel and is a worthy beer for your fridge.

Of course, there are other ales and beers that are available including: Tucker's Westcoast IPA, Round of Cheers, Lodge Life, Wit's Peak Witbier, Run Wild, Free Wave, Athletic Lite, All Out (a stunning stout), Cerveza Atletica, a Mexican-inspired light copper ale, Mystery Limited brew packs, Sunset Stoke (a refreshing red IPA) Kyle's Pale, Jumbo Juicy IPA, The Ocean Under the Moon (a special, extra-dark beer) and Athletic ESB.
