Athletic Brewing-Upside Dawn(Non-Alcoholic beer)



Athletic Brewing-Upside Dawn beer is on my TOP Shelf. I was highly skeptical about this Non-Alcoholic beer..like many people are. But after trying this one it changed my mind. The reason is that I feel good drinking it!  enjoyed it. simple as that. 

In today's blog, I intend to cover the following 
- Brief history behind this beer
- SJ's Rating & Review
- SJ's pro tip
- Why drink non-alcoholic beer? (Benefits even for alcohol drinkers)

Founded in 2018 in Stratford, Connecticut this brewery has changed the non-alcoholic beer game forever. The founders are two dudes who were fed up with having a hangover wanted a healthier option when it came to non-drinkers and non-drinking occasions.
Basically, there was no high-quality non-alcoholic beer available in the market before athletic brewing. This is where it fills in the void for many choosing to not drink on a certain occasion or for non-drinkers alike.
