In a bold move to further its influence in the booming non-alcoholic beer market, Anheuser-Busch has just announced the upcoming release of Michelob ULTRA Zero, a new alcohol-free brew that promises to deliver on taste, health, and lifestyle needs. Set to hit shelves in January 2025, Michelob ULTRA Zero is an exciting new addition to the Michelob ULTRA lineup, already known for being a top-performing brand in the beer industry.
The Rise of Non-Alcoholic Beers
As more consumers gravitate toward health-conscious and active lifestyles, the non-alcoholic beer category has seen explosive growth. This market is projected to reach a staggering $2 billion in the next five years, proving that alcohol-free options are here to stay. Whether it’s for those looking to cut down on alcohol consumption or for individuals seeking a healthier option that still fits seamlessly into social settings, non-alcoholic beers have become a popular alternative.
Michelob ULTRA Zero: A Game-Changer for Active Lifestyles
What sets Michelob ULTRA Zero apart is its commitment to offering a superior alcohol-free brew that aligns perfectly with the balanced, active lifestyles of modern consumers. With only 29 calories—half the calories of many leading non-alcoholic beers—this brew is designed for those who want to enjoy beer without compromising their health goals.
“Our focus is always on our consumers and ensuring that we continue to invest and innovate in growing segments to meet their needs,” said Kyle Norrington, Chief Commercial Officer at Anheuser-Busch. The introduction of Michelob ULTRA Zero aims to meet this growing demand, offering a beverage that’s perfect for more occasions—whether it’s post-workout or during a casual social gathering. With 0% alcohol by volume (ABV), Michelob ULTRA Zero allows consumers to enjoy the refreshing taste of beer while maintaining full control over their alcohol intake.
A New Offering for Beer Lovers
Michelob ULTRA Zero is not just another alcohol-free beer. It’s crafted to maintain the same refreshing flavor profile that fans of Michelob ULTRA have come to love since the brand’s launch in 2002. Brewed with the finest ingredients, including barley malt, rice, and hops, Michelob ULTRA Zero reflects the high-quality brewing standards that have been a hallmark of Anheuser-Busch for over 165 years.
How Michelob ULTRA Zero Stands Out
In a saturated market of alcohol-free beer options, what makes Michelob ULTRA Zero different?
- Half the Calories: With only 29 calories, it boasts significantly fewer calories than many competitors.
- Brewed for Taste: Anheuser-Busch has focused on delivering the same great taste found in Michelob ULTRA, minus the alcohol.
- Perfect for More Social Occasions: Whether you’re winding down after a workout or socializing at a party, Michelob ULTRA Zero fits seamlessly into any occasion without the side effects of alcohol.
Availability
Michelob ULTRA Zero will be available nationwide starting in January 2025. It will initially launch in 12-pack 12oz cans, followed by 6-pack 12oz bottles hitting shelves in March 2025. You’ll find it wherever Michelob ULTRA is sold, making it easy to integrate into your lifestyle and beer-drinking occasions.
