This week, I’m joined by Lou Pollitt from Lucky Saint, the UK’s best-known alcohol-free beer.
We talk about how the brand’s evolved since launching back in 2018, why they stuck so firmly to perfecting just one lager for so long, and how brewing to the German Rheinheitsgebot purity law plays into that commitment to quality.
Lou also shares some insight into their newest release —a Lemon Lager, and their less new IPA, plus we chat about the growing presence of alcohol-free options in workplaces, what it really means to build a community around a brand, and how Lucky Saint’s pub and running club are helping do just that.
And if you love a stat as much as Lou & I do: Lucky Saint is available on draught in over 1,000 pubs in the UK!
