A Different NA Beer Every Day of the Year

Wotcha!

It’s been a little over a year since I published Substitute Without Sacrifice: A Beginner’s Guide to the Best Non-Alcoholic Drinks.

A few weeks after the dust had settled, I reached out to Tyler McMahon of Reducaholic to see if he’d be interested in partnering on a directory of non-alcoholic beers.

So after many months of collaboration—drawing on Tyler’s phenomenal database and my modest design skills—we’re excited to share The NA Craft Beer Directory: 2026 U.S. Edition, featuring over 120 breweries and 300+ beers from across the United States.

So, without further ado, check out the latest drinks news below, then scroll down to explore what’s inside the directory. We’d love for you to take a look and let us know what you think.

As always, enjoy some great drinks this week.
