Non-alcoholic beer. Not even worthy of an exclamation point, right? Kind of ick-inducing? In most cases, that's sadly the case, but there's a N/A beer company with a local presence that's making taking a break from all the ABV kind of cool. That interest goes by the name Athletic Brewing. Born in Connecticut, they moved to the left coast in 2019 to set up a brewery at Ballast Point's former barrel-aging facility on Trade Street. Since then, they've brought aboard a number of well-known San Diego brewers who are working together to produce N/A beer that's a cut above and displays diversity of flavors and styles. Join us as we talk to Athletic founder John Walker and Director of Brewing Kevin Henschel about their bi-coastal beer biz and what it's been like making a home in the beer capital of the US.
