CBD: Does It Actually Work?
CBD - Does it really have the power to work wonders, or is it all just smoke and mirrors?
What Are CBD Drinks?
CBD drinks are a new type of functional drink that have been gaining popularity in recent years. CBD, or cannabidiol, is a non-psychoactive compound found in cannabis that has many health benefits. CBD drinks are made by infusing CBD oil into water, tea, coffee, or other beverages.
The great thing about CBD drinks is that they provide all the benefits of cannabis without the psychoactive effects. This makes them perfect for people who want the health benefits from cannabis but don't want to get high. CBD drinks come in many different flavours and can be enjoyed any time of day.
CBD is non-psychoactive, so it doesn't make you feel high like THC does. CBD primarily interacts with the body's endocannabinoid system, which is responsible for regulating many different functions such as mood, sleep, appetite, and pain. CBD can help to balance the endocannabinoid system by boosting levels of cannabinoids that are naturally produced by the body. This can help to improve overall health and well-being.
Does Cannabis Help With Anxiety?
Many people use cannabis to treat anxiety disorders. Cannabis has been shown to be effective in treating a variety of anxiety disorders, including Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD), Social Anxiety Disorder (SAD), Panic Disorder (PD), and Posttraumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD).
Cannabis works to treat anxiety by interacting with the endocannabinoid system. The endocannabinoid system is responsible for regulating many different functions, including mood and stress response. When cannabis is consumed, it interacts with the receptors in the brain that control these functions. This can help to reduce feelings of anxiety and improve overall well-being.
So What's The Problem With CBD Drinks?
The main issue with CBD drinks is, again, that they aren't very potent. Most of the effects from CBD come from consuming large amounts, which can be difficult to do when you're drinking it in a beverage. This means that you often need to drink multiple servings to get the desired effects.
Another downside to CBD drinks is that they can be expensive. A single bottle of CBD drink (with a sufficient dose) can cost anywhere from £7-10, which can add up quickly if you're drinking them regularly.
CBD drinks are a great option for people who want the benefits of cannabis but don't want to get high. They provide all the benefits of cannabis without any of the psychoactive effects. However, they are not as potent as other nootropic or adaptogenic ingredients.
Moreover, one of the main barriers of using these drinks to replace alcohol is that they just don't taste anything like the real thing.
Alcohol has quite a unique flavour and the experience of sipping teas or drinking energy drinks just isn't the same. Moreover, most of them are either too sweet or have an artificial taste that can be quite unpleasant. On top of that, most of the buzz they provide isn't similar to alcohol. So if you're looking for a functional drink that tastes like alcohol, you're going to be disappointed with CBD.
Conclusion
In conclusion, CBD drinks are a great option for people who want the benefits of cannabis without the psychoactive effects. However, they are not as potent as other nootropic or adaptogenic ingredients, and they can be expensive. Additionally, they don't taste like alcohol and don't provide the same buzz. Ultimately, it's up to the individual to decide if CBD drinks are the right choice for them.

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.
