BURLINGTON, VT – Switchback Brewing Co. is proud to announce the launch of Switchback N.A., a non-alcoholic version of their beloved flagship Switchback Ale, crafted with the same dedication to flavor and quality—minus the alcohol.

"Since day one, Switchback Ale has been all about balance," said Bill Cherry, Founder & Brewmaster of Switchback Brewing Co. "It’s a beer that’s as familiar as it is innovative, crafted to be full-bodied and flavorful while remaining incredibly drinkable. As we’ve grown, we’ve come to appreciate that balance in new ways, and we saw an opportunity to extend that idea into the world of non-alcoholic beer."

A Non-Alcoholic Beer That Doesn’t Compromise

Switchback Ale has long been a go-to beer for any occasion, but the brewery recognized that sometimes, the best choice is to skip the alcohol—without sacrificing the craft experience. Whether it’s a post-run hangout, a weeknight dinner, or simply taking it easy, those moments still deserve a beer made with the same quality, flavor, and care that Switchback fans expect.

"There’s been a growing demand for non-alcoholic options, but we weren’t willing to put our name on something that didn’t meet our standards," Cherry explained. "We wanted to create a non-alcoholic beer that truly captures the same quality and authenticity people expect from Switchback.”

Innovative Brewing for an Authentic Experience

To achieve this, Switchback partnered with BrewVo NA, pioneers in the “nested fermentation” process. This method allows BrewVo to fully brew Switchback Ale and then gently remove the alcohol while preserving the beer’s signature flavor and aroma. The result? A non-alcoholic beer that delivers everything fans love about Switchback Ale—just without the alcohol.

Embracing Balance, One Sip at a Time

For Switchback, the launch of Switchback N.A. is more than just expanding the product lineup—it’s about staying true to the brewery’s values.

"We see this as an evolution, not a departure," Cherry said. "Switchback Ale N.A. allows us to make our beer truly available for every occasion, no matter what balance looks like for you. We’re excited for fans to raise a glass—or a can—to this next chapter in the Switchback story."

Switchback N.A. will be available at select locations across Vermont to start, as well as directly from the brewery. For more information, visit switchbackvt.com, or follow them on social media for updates.

About Switchback Brewing Company:

Switchback Brewing Company was founded in 2002 by master brewer Bill Cherry. To maximize complexity and flavor, the beer is left unfiltered and carbonated during fermentation by the yeast itself, creating a 100% naturally conditioned beer. In 2017, Switchback Brewing Co. officially became the first 100% employee-owned brewery in Vermont via an Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP), keeping the brewery locally owned and operated at its original home in Burlington, VT. Switchback beers are distributed throughout Vermont, New England plus parts of New York and Virginia.
