According to the American Heart Association, a typical 12-ounce can of sugar-sweetened soda contains over 38 grams of sugar, exceeding the recommended daily limit for most adults. This stark statistic sets the stage for a crucial nutritional comparison: are NA (non-alcoholic) beers a healthier alternative to sugary sodas?

According to research published in the journal *Nutrients*, alcohol-free beer is beneficial due to its antioxidant properties, but that doesn't tell the whole story. While it eliminates the harmful effects of alcohol, the question of how unhealthy is alcohol-free beer depends heavily on a product’s specific nutritional content, including potentially high sugar and calorie levels.

A single 12oz can of Athletic Brewing's Free Wave Hazy IPA contains only 70 calories. This fact makes it a highly appealing option for those seeking a flavorful, non-alcoholic craft beer without the high-calorie load of many traditional alcoholic brews, which often begin at twice that amount or more.
