We recently broke down data collected by Bricklane Brewing that surveyed a wide range of Aussies to dissect the reason behind the increasing number of non-alcoholic drink options. Some of the most interesting stats can be found by reading the article in full below, but the headline fact is this; 71 per cent of Australians surveyed between 18-34 think their NoLo consumption will go up, while 68 per cent of this age group would encourage friends and family to drink NoLo beverages.

The most popular non-alcoholic drink is beer and for good reason, the study featured above proves that it’s becoming a true lunchtime replacement for many drinkers who are looking to keep up their healthy lifestyle habits. Our list of the best non-alcoholic beer brands below features the best lagers, IPA and XPA from the top breweries around the world. You’ll notice a few familiar brands on the list, but also look to explore some of our local favourites, with most Aussie breweries having a non-alcoholic option on their shelves.

While non-alcoholic beer still reigns supreme in popularity, NoLo wine is one of the fastest-growing segments in the industry. It has a distinct flavour advantage over spirits such as whiskey and gin (which are primarily made with botanicals and flavour extracts) due to a production process that’s similar to beer.

When it comes to non-alcoholic spirits, gin reigns supreme. And while the best gin non-alcoholic gin brands listed below embody the flavour of gin with every sip – they won’t give you headaches or hangovers to boot.

Most of the distillers on our list of best non-alcoholic whiskey walk a very fine line between calling them flavoured spirits and ‘whiskey’ by legal definition. Still, you’ll find a number of bourbon alternatives on our list, as well as Scotch alternatives that have the classic French Oak flavour brought into the equation.
