# Yes, Non-Alcoholic Beer Is Becoming a Big Thing

Today, the craft beer movement is for ALL the people. That's right, the non-alcoholic beer trend is a big thing, and it's not going anywhere. Gone are the days of the designated driver who is designated to kid's drinks.

And it's not just beer.

At large, the non-alcoholic beverage market [is predicted](https://www.grandviewresearch.com/industry-analysis/nonalcoholic-beverage-market) to grow by as much as six percent over the next 10 years, and this trend is driven by N/A options ranging from coffee to "mocktails" to low and non-alcoholic beer.

According to Anheuser-Busch InBev, the low or alcohol-free beer segment is going to account for a stunningly high 20 percent of the company's entire production volume by 2025. From Bud to Corona to Heineken to Guinness, there are now N/A options for just about every mass-produced beer variety.

But this trend is certainly not limited to mass production. The craft beer world is seeing the potential in this once niche segment, as well. N/A styles are now just as wide and varied as any other cooler at the liquor store, with low to no-alcohol options including IPAs, ambers, porters, and stouts.

It seems obvious that the trend is catching on with brewers because it's profitable, but the reasons why aren't as apparent.

**HEALTH**

This is the real obvious one. One of the first things people look to eliminate when living a healthier lifestyle is alcohol. N/A beer advocates say the low-alcohol beers make them feel better, and now they taste better.

**LIFESTYLE**

The N/A beer trend has inspired lifestyle movements like [#mindfuldrinking](https://www.instagram.com/explore/tags/mindfuldrinking/) on social media. N/A and low-alcohol beers are a great choice for pregnant mothers, baby showers, people who are driving home, and even people training for sporting events such as the IronMan or a marathon. N/A beer advocates say lifestyle choices shouldn't eliminate the desire for quality flavors. Religious groups also tout N/A beer when their religions preclude them from drinking.

**PERCEPTION**

This is a big one because, traditionally, there has been a bad rap to zero percent beers. The stigma was they were boring and tasteless, and a big part of that perception was due to marketing. Now N/A beers are becoming more popular, and as their consumption gains public acceptance, more and more people are drinking them. In fact, 33 percent of Spaniards claim to drink N/A beer, and 23 percent of Germans do. Erdinger, a popular German brewer, even hands out a free N/A pint for finishers of the Berlin marathon.
