The Dry Hop Fest: America's First Non-Alcoholic Beer Festival

What Is The Dry Hop Fest?

The Dry Hop Fest is America’s first non-alcoholic beer festival, designed for adults who love the taste of craft beer but want to skip the alcohol. The event celebrates the sober-curious movement and provides a vibrant alternative for anyone who values mindful drinking.

This isn’t just another tasting event, but a community experience. With more than 30 NA beverage brands, a local food truck, and an exclusive raffle of NA products (which includes some NA Beer Club sub boxes!), The Dry Hop Fest is redefining the craft beer fest scene.

Who’s Organizing The Dry Hop Fest?

The Dry Hop Fest is organized by The Phoenix, a nonprofit recovery community that uses fitness, events, and connection to provide a supportive environment for people navigating sobriety. Their Denver team is partnering with non-alcoholic beer advocate Tyler McMahon, who has been a driving force in the NA beer scene and created a festival to celebrate it.

Tyler runs Reducaholic, which has grown from a simple spreadsheet into the largest map of U.S. NA breweries and a resource hub for non-alcoholic craft beer, helping fans discover local breweries, order online, and learn about the industry.

Together, they saw the opportunity to bring the NA beer community together in real life. The Dry Hop Fest is the result. Whether you’re in recovery, cutting back on alcohol, or simply curious, you’ll find a welcoming space here.

Who It’s For

The Dry Hop Fest welcomes anyone who wants to explore the next generation of beverages:

Sober-curious individuals exploring life without alcohol

Designated drivers looking for more than soda or water at events

In short: it’s for everyone who believes that celebration doesn’t require alcohol.
