INTRODUCING NOLIA: ALCOHOL-FREE BEER, FIXED.
We’re super excited to announce the launch of NOLIA (09.06.25), a new alcohol-free brewing project with a single mission: creating an AF beer that looks, smells and tastes like a top-tier IPA.
AF beer has come a long way in recent years. But the fact remains that the majority of AF brands are made by macros, who've been too slow to accommodate the tastes of modern drinkers. A year ago, we decided to change this and began investing a significant amount of time and money into researching how we could create an AF beer that would live up to the expectations of Beak’s customer base, who place a lot of value on high-grade hop character. The culmination of this was FLWRS, which was released in November and is now the highest rated AF IPA in the UK on Untappd’s Top Rated list – an accolade we’re really proud of.
If you've tried FLWRS and enjoyed it then you're in for a treat because NOLIA is everything we love about this beer but with even more body, complexity and hop character. It is, quite simply, everything we’ve dreamt AF beer could be and we’ll be continually improving it from batch to batch.
We’re releasing NOLIA as a separate brand for a couple of reasons. First, BEAK’s primary focus is, and always will be, the production of world-class beer containing alcohol because, for the majority of our customers, it’s an ingredient that not only augments social experiences but also generates the kind of magical, ethereal flavours only found in higher ABV IPAs and DIPAs. We don’t want to dilute this message.
Secondly, by setting up NOLIA as a separate offering, we hope to clearly communicate a different mission: creating the UK’s best premium AF IPA. And though there will undoubtedly be a lot of crossover between our two demographics, we hope to be able to reach new audiences that have traditionally felt disconnected from the craft beer scene – people for whom the motto “Less = More” resonates.
But don’t just take our word for it. The beer launches 9 June at www.nolia.beer with 10% off for newsletter subscribers and FREE shipping until midnight 15 June. We’d love to hear your feedback!
