Key Highlights
Present in 120 countries, Bavaria 0.0% has achieved very wide representation. It benefits from a high level of brand recognition, based on both the brewery's alcoholic beer and as a non-alcoholic brand. The latter is a point of distinction that chimes well with prevailing trends in Western markets and the rising opportunity in Muslim regions.

Genuinely zero alcohol content makes beer accessible to those previously religiously or culturally precluded from consuming it. It also makes it accessible as a genuine alternative to alcoholic beer in markets where alcohol consumption is moderating through changing societal values, complex lifestyles, and diversifying consumption occasions.
