Ellicottville Brewing Company Releases a Nonalcoholic Beer
Ellicottville Brewing Company just became the newest brewery in Upstate New York to release their own nonalcoholic beer. In early July they announced their first ever NA brew on social media. Their first non-alc brew is a less than 0.5% ABV version of their wildly popular Blueberry Wheat.
According to their website the nonalcoholic Blueberry Wheat beer is produced entirely in-house at their production facility in Cattauragus County. The new brew is one of only a few nonalcoholic beers produced in Western New York. Plus, it is likely the only fruited nonalcoholic beer in all of Upstate.
With over 26,000 ratings on Untapped for their original Blueberry Wheat, choosing a popular flagship beer to make without alcohol is a smart move.
As more Americans choose to drink less alcohol, breweries everywhere are trying to find ways to accommodate customers with options. While producing a nonalcoholic beer has gotten more approachable for breweries, it’s still complex and can be costly.
The new nonalcoholic Blueberry Wheat from Ellicottville Brewing Company is available in cans only right now. It’s available at each of the Ellicottville Brewing locations, but it’s also sold in stores around Upstate.
