    I really don't understand all the hate around NA beer. A lot of people actually enjoy the flavor of beer but would prefer to stay sober. When people say "what's the point if you're not getting buzzed?" kinda makes me think they're actually just self reporting as alcoholic. I decided to stop using alcohol years ago, but these products let me enjoy a brew without dealing with the very real consequences of consuming alcohol. Sure, NA beer is more expensive so I just don't purchase it every time I go grocery shopping, but the fact that its even an option is something to appreciate.

    I honestly haven't heard about this beer company until seeing this video. I recently gave up alcohol for no particular reason other than it just wasn't doing it for me anymore. But I have quickly learned that there still is a time and a place where having what appears to be an alcoholic drink in your hand is easier than explaining why you didn't order a drink. I do like the taste of beer, and having a beer or 4 while hanging around the pool is enjoyable to me, but my body doesn't react well anymore. I am going to grab a 6-pack of Athletic and see how we make out.

    Honestly their next step is to move into alcoholic drinks. A really low carb beer and call it “Boozy Athlete” or really make a large switch by making vodka or tequila, which is super popular amongst low carb style diets, to continue with the healthy trend of being able to drink. Another thing they could possibly start producing is a nonalcoholic electrolyte recovery beer. Very odd, but in 2018 I believe the German Olympian team drank like 5000 gallons of nonalcoholic beer, and salt used to be put in beer to help with the harsh commercial taste of beer after prohibition according to Google’s ai. This could help them compete in a new category altogether fighting against Gatorade and Powerade

I will have a third of a glass of wine with my steak, but with my burger I'll have an entire bottle or can of low alcohol or a non alcoholic beer. I will drink alcohol for celebrating or for special occasions. But when I want something to drink, water and sparkling water (which I also drink) can get boring. I would see beverages like Coke and Pepsi challenged. Their sweetness ruins food. Non alcoholic beer is what I turn to. I also don't get the buzz.
