Athletic Brewing & Vans Team Up For Side Stage / Crease Crusher / Noble Pils

This morning, I have a new non-alcoholic beer coming soon from Athletic Brewing in Milford, Connecticut. This is Side Stage, and it will be a collaboration with Vans Warped Tour Orlando and the Athletic Brewing Two For The Trails Grant. The beer will be a non-alcoholic hoppy pale ale with orange peel that will hit less than 0.5%-AbV (as well as 60 calories & 14g carbs), and the beer will be packaged in 12-oz cans. Stay tuned for release details.

I’ve also added in Crease Crusher Premier Lacrosse League collaboration 12-oz cans (<0.5%-AbV) and the non-collaboration 2026 Noble Pils (12-oz cans).

Label Text Athletic Brewing Side Stage:

“Warped is back, proving what we knew all along: it was never a phase. For 30 years, it’s been carried by fans and artists who built a scene bigger than music. Now celebrating its return after 5 years, this hoppy Pale blends golden hops with aromas of sweet citrus and lively florals – a toast to the kids who never left the pit and the next generation making sure the show goes on.”

About Athletic Brewing:

Here at Athletic Brewing Co. we’re dedicated to crafting delicious non-alcoholic beer you can enjoy anytime and anywhere, with no worries and no hangovers. Our non-alcoholic beers are crafted with a proprietary process that allows us to maintain full flavor – which is why ours continue to win numerous awards when up against full-strength beers. Skeptical? So were some of our biggest fans before their first sip.

We got our start in Stratford, CT – the place where Bill and John first began test-brewing. They crafted over 100 batches on homebrew equipment to perfect their process and refine their flavors. Once satisfied, they built an entire brewery around it. Since then, we’ve moved just down the road to Milford, CT and built what is believed to be the world’s largest dedicated NA brewery. We’ve also expanded to sunny San Diego. Between the two breweries, we’re able to bring the finest and freshest NA beers on the market to customers on both coasts – in stores and delivered to your door.

We brew loads of styles throughout the year so that anyone seeking a non-alcoholic option can experience the best in craft brewing, in as many ways as possible. You can get our essential Athletic brews like Run Wild, Upside Dawn, Free Wave, Cerveza Atletica and Athletic Lite in store year round. We also regularly release experimental batches, limited-edition styles and collaborative brews crafted with our favorite brands on our website.

A better tomorrow. Isn’t that what we’re all here for? Mornings we can’t wait to wake up to. Days we never want to end. How about greener pastures we can actually access, and clearer skies wherever we roam. Happier trails – for us, and Mother Nature. And sunnier dispositions as far as the eye can see. A better version of our day, ourselves, our communities, and our world…that sounds pretty grand to us.

A tomorrow so promising that we plan for it today. With our choices, our motivations and our daily routines. We live for that tomorrow. We push for that tomorrow. We are crafting that tomorrow. Because we know that tomorrow is going to be great.
