“This is a thrilling time for Partake Brewing and we are proud to work with both our retail and distribution partners to redefine the non-alcoholic category and continue to deliver on our market position as a leading North American non-alcoholic craft beer,” said Ted Fleming, founder/CEO. “After an accelerated year of sales growth, the addition of these important U.S. markets provides us with an opportunity to meet the consumer’s growing interest and demand for non-alcoholic offerings while providing an unparalleled drinking experience.”

Last December, Partake, which is based in Calgary, Alberta, entered the U.S. market with distribution in Arizona, Maine, Massachusetts, North Carolina, Oregon, Rhode Island and Washington. Today’s announcement also comes on the heels of the brand’s recent $4 million Series A funding round led by CircleUp Growth Partners.
Partake was established in 2017 to offer people a variety of great-tasting, non-alcoholic craft beers suitable for any occasion or location. Partake was founded by Fleming after a diagnosis of Crohn’s Disease led him to give up alcohol. To maintain the social connection and interaction that comes from socially drinking Fleming turned to non-alcoholic beer. However, he found that variety and taste were often missing from the available NAB offerings. This ultimately inspired him to brew his own, giving consumers a variety of great-tasting, non-alcoholic craft beers suitable for any occasion or location.
Partake currently offers Pale, IPA, Blonde, Red and Dark and limited seasonal editions. It has just 10-30 calories per can, uses vegan all-natural ingredients.
As a recipient of numerous international awards for high-quality product and innovation, including a Gold Medal at the World Beer Awards for Best Non-Alcoholic Beer, Partake is a leader in the North American non-alcoholic craft beer industry.
