By GlobalDataThe 0.5% abv beer, which is also vegan friendly, is launching nationwide in the US via selected off-premise outlets and on the Athletic Brewing website. The craft brewer hopes to take market share from larger light beer brands including Michelob Ultra, Bud Light, Miller Lite and Coors Light.
“Athletic Lite was months in development, and definitely presented one of our biggest brewing challenges to date,” said co-founder & head brewer John Walker, “After many test batches, we were able to perfect a recipe that we are very proud of: a crushable, refreshing and great-tasting everyday brew for any occasion.”
Athletic was founded in 2017 and last year surpassed 100,000 brewers barrels (117,000 hectolitres) for the first time. The brewer closed a US$50m funding round in June 2021 and counts ex pro-cyclist Lance Armstrong and former American football player JJ Watt among its investors.
