The Top Selling Beers

From hop-forward IPAs to rich stouts, Athletic Brewing offers a diverse range of options. Here are their three top-selling NA beers in Oregon and Washington:

• Run Wild IPA: the ultimate sessionable IPA for craft beer lovers. Brewed with a blend of five Northwest hops, it has an approachable bitterness to balance the specialty malt body. Always refreshing and only 65 calories.
• Free Wave Hazy IPA: a hugely hoppy hazy IPA with a juicy body and velvety pour. A trio of Amarillo, Citra and Mosaic hops generate bodacious aromatics of tangerine and grapefruit. Notes of pine and florals emerge in the secondary palate for an herbaceous reprieve in all the right places. It’s luscious, smooth, and highly aromatic.

Together, these top-selling beers showcase Athletic’s devotion to innovation and excellence, earning them a loyal following among consumers seeking flavorful alternatives to traditional alcoholic beverages.
