Grab a Trail Pass and start a new adventure with miles of flavor. Explore the hoppy notes of citrus and pine from Amarillo® and CTZ varieties in non-alcoholic Trail Pass IPA. The silky malt body and clean hop bitterness are just what you’d expect from a world-class Sierra Nevada IPA, yet it’s less than 0.5% ABV.
With Trail Pass IPA we captured the iconic citrus and pine explosion that you expect from a Sierra Nevada IPA, all without the alcohol. Hit the trail with the hoppy aromas and let the smooth maltiness wash over your taste buds. It's like a hike through a hop forest.
“It meets all of our criteria for what we would consider a craft IPA—not necessarily even a craft non-alcoholic IPA, but a craft IPA,” says James Conery, Innovation Brewmaster at Sierra Nevada.
Trail Pass uses traditional brewing methods, not alcohol removal, to create full craft flavor below the 0.5% ABV non-alcoholic threshold.

12oz can pours out amber golden topped with a white head. Nose is nice citrus hop forward notes. Taste is more of the nice citrus hops and a little malt note.

Can from Trader Joe's in Davis, CA. Pours translucent gold with a moderate white head. Smells a bit like orange. Med body. Flavor is citrus, arguably with orange, and a malt support that suggests the old Near Beer drink. Dry and moderately bitter. Quite good for an NA ale.

Tap at the Chico venue. Pours gold with a white head. Light citrus pine aroma. Medium minus body. Flavor is light- the aroma plus floral. Decently bitter. Very good for the style.
