Alcohol-Free
Answered: Why bother drinking if you can't get tipsy?
Why bother drinking beer if you can't even get a buzz out of it?
It's no secret that alcohol consumption can have some serious health consequences. From hangovers to liver disease, alcohol is not exactly great for you. This is why more and more people are choosing to drink alcohol-free beers instead. Believe it or not, these beers offer a number of health benefits that you won't find in regular beer. In this blog post, we will discuss 10 reasons why you should start drinking alcohol-free beer today!
What's The Point Of Alcohol-Free Beer?
This is one of the first questions people ask when they hear about alcohol-free beer. What's the point of drinking a beer that doesn't have alcohol? "I drink to feel something and alcohol-free beer doesn't do that!" We've got an answer for you here.
Alcohol-free beer is a great way to stay healthy.
Unlike regular beer, alcohol-free beer does not contain any alcohol (duh). This means that it won't have any of the negative health effects that come with alcohol consumption. In fact, research has shown that alcohol-free beer can have some serious health benefits, including:
- improved heart health
- decreased risk of cancer
- reduced risk of dementia
- reduced risk of liver disease
Hangovers are a thing of the past with alcohol-free beer.
If you're one of those people who always seems to get a hangover after drinking, alcohol-free beer is for you! Because alcohol-free beer doesn't contain any alcohol, it won't cause nasty hangovers the next day. In fact, many people find that they feel better after drinking alcohol-free beer than they do after drinking regular beer. If you want to avoid dreaded hangovers, switch to alcohol-free beer today!
Perfect partner for you if you're planning on driving.
If you don't drink alcohol for health reasons or because you don't want to get a hangover, alcohol-free beer is the perfect drink for you! Because alcohol-free beers don't contain any alcohol, they are the perfect choice for designated drivers. This means that you can enjoy a night out without having to worry about getting behind the wheel afterwards.
Alcohol-free beer is great when you've got a little one onboard.
Pregnant women should avoid drinking alcohol at all costs, but that doesn't mean that they have to miss out on the fun! Alcohol-free beer is a great alternative for soon-to-be mums who want to enjoy a night out with their friends. In fact, many pregnant women find that alcohol-free beer tastes just as good as regular beer.
You just want to not drink as much.
If you're trying to cut down on your alcohol consumption, alcohol-free beer is a great option! Because alcohol-free beers don't contain any alcohol, they can help you transition from regular beer to non-alcoholic beer. This means that you can still enjoy the taste of beer without the negative health effects that come with alcohol consumption.
You're on a diet.
If you're trying to watch your weight, alcohol-free beer is a great choice! Because alcohol-free beers don't contain any alcohol, they are low in calories. This means that you can enjoy a few beers without having to worry about ruining your diet.
Alcohol is what is known as having 'empty calories' - it doesn't contain any nutritional value, so you're essentially having liquid bread - without any of the nutritional or energy benefits that come with it.
Most alcoholic drinks have calories of around 100-120 per 12 oz. serving, which is more than you'd find in a can of coke or Pepsi. Dieters often don't realise how many calories they're consuming when they drink alcohol and then wonder why the scales aren't moving downwards! Alcohol also has the sneaky ability to make you eat more - just think about all those drunk snacks you've munched on! Cut out the alcohol and you'll be one step closer to your diet goals.
Alcohol-free beer is a great way to wind down after a long day.
While some people feel that the taste of alcohol-free beer alone is enough to remind them of what it feels like to drink (how lucky), some of us might want something a little bit more 'substantial'.
With the rapid growth of alcohol-free beers, there's been a significant evolution in the field - the advent of functional alcohol-free beers. They contain ingredients that offer mood-enhancing, relaxation benefits that simulate alcohol, without hangovers.
What Are Mood Enhancing Alcohol-Free Beers?
They are alcohol-free beers that have been enhanced with ingredients that offer mood-enhancing, relaxation benefits.
These beers often contain naturally active, potent herbs such as L-Theanine, 5-HTP, passionflower and valerian which can help to promote calmness and relaxation. They are a great way to wind down after a long day at work.
Conclusion
So, there you have it - seven great reasons why you should switch to alcohol-free beer. Whether you're looking for a healthier alternative to alcohol, want to avoid getting hangovers or are on a diet, alcohol-free beer has something to offer you!

How is 0.5% ABV alcohol-free?
Yes, we know it's confusing. Isn't 0.5% ABV still alcoholic? Officially, 0.5% ABV is classified as Dealcoholised.
- In fact, most things we consume daily have more than 0.5% ABV
- Burger Rolls - 1.2% ABV
- Orange Juice - 0.5% ABV
- Ripe Banana - 0.5% ABV
After more than 2 years of research, we've found that the 0.5% ABV from our natural brewing process significantly increases both flavour and mouthfeel - without spiking your blood alcohol level (BAC).
Is it really gluten-free?
Yes, IMPOSSIBREW® Enhanced Lager is gluten-free. Even though it contains wheat and barley, our beers have been third-party tested to contain less than 10 parts per million (PPM) of gluten, which meets the criteria to be listed as, and labeled gluten-free.
Does it have alcohol tax?
No. While it is true that our beers don't contain alcohol, and thus don't incur UK alcohol duty, we'd like to highlight some factors here that might be helpful in reflecting the value we provide.
- One-to-One Brewing Process: At IMPOSSIBREW, we take pride in our unique brewing techniques. Unlike other non-alcoholic beers, our products are never diluted, watered-down, or have their alcohol content removed - and some even dilute their alcoholic beers up to 5x. This means that our brewing process involves the same level of craftsmanship, time, and resources as a traditional craft beer, resulting in comparable production costs.
- Effective Nootropics: In our commitment to creating the most relaxing non-alcoholic beers, we utilise only the highest quality nootropics as our active ingredients, in safe and effectives dosages. At current alcohol tax rates for a 5% ABV beer, the cost of our nootropics more than double that. Instead of contributing the amounts as tax, why not have it contribute to the product quality itself?
- Small Scale Brewing: Currently, we operate on a smaller scale, which makes us less competitive than large, commercial brewers (often +10,000x our brewing size). As a growing business, we are passionate about our mission to create unique, high-quality non-alcoholic experiences, and we truly appreciate your support. As we continue to grow and expand our production capabilities, we look forward to passing on even more savings to our valued community!
At IMPOSSIBREW, we prioritise offering our customers an enhanced, premium, non-alcoholic beer experience by combining innovative brewing techniques, quality active nootropic ingredients, and award-winning taste. While our pricing may differ from other non-alcoholic competitors, we believe that the value proposition and unique experience our beers provide are well worth it.
At the end of the day, tasting is believing. So give it a try and let us know what you think - risk-free with our IMPOSSIBREW® Guarantee.
Who shouldn't drink IMPOSSIBREW®?
It is not recommended for pregnant or breastfeeding women, those with certain medical conditions like GI disorders or hypertension, or individuals taking specific medications such as antidepressants or blood thinners. If you fall into any of these categories, it's best to consult with your doctor first.
Ashwagandha can lead to overstimulation (i.e. restlessness) if taken alongside thyroid medication.
What is your philosophy?
For thousands of years, we had only one way to unwind together. One way to let our guards down. One way to bridge the gap between who we are and who we are with others.
Not because it was perfect. But because it was all we had.
We decided that wasn't good enough.
We exist because we believe in a world where social connection doesn't demand compromise.
Where being present with others doesn't mean being absent from yourself. Where letting go doesn't mean losing control.This isn't about removing alcohol. This is about something better.
Our Social Blend™ technology isn't an accident. It's the result of questioning everything we thought we knew about social drinking. About working with scientists to understand what we're really seeking in these moments of connection. About daring to imagine something that wasn't possible before.
We believe the greatest innovations don't just solve problems - they change how we live. They make us question why we ever settled for less.
That's what we're building. Not just a drink, but a new way forward. A future where social connection comes without compromise. Where tradition meets innovation. Where science meets ritual.
This is the future of social drinking.
