Bill Shufelt, co-founder of Athletic Brewing, joins me to share the remarkable journey behind America's leading non-alcoholic beer brand.

From his personal decision to stop drinking 13 years ago to building a business that's now outselling major breweries, Bill's story is one of identifying a genuine market gap and relentlessly pursuing quality.

We explore Athletic's brewing philosophy, their expansion into the UK market (including that exciting Arsenal partnership), and why Bill believes non-alcoholic drinks could eventually claim 50% of the adult beverage market.

With insights on everything from draft beer challenges to their impressive charitable giving programme, this conversation reveals why Athletic Brewing has become such a force in reshaping how we think about beer.
