Description
Began life as a contract brewer of low-alcohol beers whose beers were understood to be brewed by Hambleton.

The multi award winning brewer, Drop Bear Beer Co. exploded onto the UK beer scene in 2019 with the mission of bringing true craft to the alcohol free beer market. Seven awards, four craft beers, and quadruple percentage growth later Drop Bear is the UK’s top rated alcohol free brewer and has expanded into Canada, Spain, and Germany.

Traditionally brewed with only the highest quality ingredients, Drop Bear believes in great AF beer for all. That’s why the entire range is gluten free, vegan, and low calorie.

With a loyal and ever increasing fan base, Drop Bear is the craft beer that the alcohol free market long desired.

In August 2023 Drop Bear purchased the Tomos Watkin brewery and began brewing their beers on site, in addition to the Tomos Watkin beers. This move meant that, at the time, Drop Bear were the UK's largest non-alcoholic beer brewery.

Can on a hot day from the Lacock Shop & Deli, Lacock, Wiltshire. Lightly hazed gold with a thin and swiftly diminishing white head. Vague tropical aroma and flavour. Some wheat chaff. Rather watery, but a decent bitterness makes it reasonably drinkable and refreshing. A little disappointing compared to their decent Bonfire Stout though.
