[4] Our idea of a great party is when nobody gets inebriated.

We made a beer discovery recently that has made us very happy.

We have a pretty narrow palate in beer: We want hops. The hoppier and more citrusy, the better.

That means IPA (India Pale Ale).

When we were offered samples of a non-alcoholic IPA from Partake Brewing, we paused.

Non-alcoholic?

The few brands we’ve tasted over the years have told us to steer clear of N/A beer.

But we love IPA. So why not taste it?

We struck gold. Partake Brewing IPA is a delicious beer with negligible calories and no alcohol*.

There’s plenty of IPA flavor to please us, and it doesn’t taste like a non-alcoholic beer.

In fact, we like it more than some standard IPAs we’ve tasted.

Made with citrusy, zingy and bold, Amarillo, Cascade and Citra hops, Partake Brewing IPA has aroma and palate notes of grapefruit, that we love from these Pacific Northwest hops.

All this aroma and flavor is delivered with just four ingredients: water, barley, hops and yeast.
 
 
A BIG BONUS

To those who aren’t inclined to try a non-alcoholic beer, consider these benefits:

Because there is no alcohol, there are:

 
You can drink an entire six-pack—if that’s your thing—for 60 calories.

Plus, you get no elevated blood alcohol level and no hangover.

Let us twist your arm to have a can with your next burger, pizza, sandwich, sushi, steak, whatever.

PARTAKE BREWER

Partake Brewing was founded by Ted Fleming, a Canadian beer lover who could no longer drink alcohol.

His quest was to make craft beer great for non-alcoholic drinkers, creating the taste and authentic experience of craft beer.

Except that no alcohol means it can be enjoyed by all. If you had serve it to me blind, I would not have known it was
alcohol free.

The brewery makes five styles of non-alcoholic beer: Blond, IPA, Pale, Red and Stout. Gose is forthcoming.

“Alcohol Free, Beer Lover Approved” says Partake Brewery. We agree.
