This Is TASTE

606: The NA Craft Beer Boom Is Real with Best Day (Tate Huffard) & Visitor (Rob Jensen)


Listen Later

We’ve been covering the nonalcoholic beer scene at TASTE for a minute, and it was a lot of fun having one of the most exciting names in the industry, Tate Huffard, in the studio. Tate is the founder of Best Day Brewing, which makes one of our favorite NA beers available today. Tate shares the story of the company, and how he’s bringing NA versions of Kolsch and IPAs to the masses. We also zoom out and talk about the future of NA drinking and how craft beer drinkers are embracing cans and bottles and kegs of beer. If you were ever interested in how nonalcoholic beer is made and why you are starting to see more of it around, this is the episode for you.

Also on the show, we have a great conversation with Rob Jensen. He’s the co-founder of Chicago-based Visitor and we learn about the company’s unique approach with NA beer. Think: Less is more. So much more.
