We know what you're thinking...

No - it doesn't taste like mushrooms and yes, they are the zombie mushroom.

(they cannot turn you into a zombie, only alcoholic beer can do that).

Your Words, not ours

Most low alcohol beers taste synthetic and a poor copy of an alcoholic version. This beer genuinely tastes great and the added functional mushrooms are a bonus. Would really recommend this.

Lucas

Genuinely the best tasting non-alcoholic beer on the market. Actually tastes like beer whilst also proper refreshing

Ollie

Best tasting lager (especially non/low alcohol) that I’ve ever tasted! Not too bitter, extremely smooth, and lovely flavour. Absolutely loved it.

The People Behind High and Dry

High & Dry was started by the two of us, Louis and Don.

Louis wanted better, more meaningful, alcohol free beer. Don was the award winning brewer who could make it happen.

Common Questions

Is 0.4% alcohol free?

Yes. In the UK, anything 0.5% ABV and under counts as alcohol free. High & Dry is 0.4%, which is less than a ripe banana, a glass of orange juice or a homemade sourdough starter.

Is it actually Gluten Free?

Yes. High & Dry is gluten free.

We brew with malted barley, but the gluten is removed during the process and every batch is independently tested to below 10 parts per million, which meets the Coeliac UK gluten free standard.

What do the mushrooms do?

We use Lion’s Mane and Cordyceps because they are widely enjoyed for their functional qualities and long history of use. People choose them for focus, energy and a sense of natural clarity, and they fit the way many of us want to drink now. We include them in safe, food grade amounts that complement the beer rather than overpower it.

Can it make me drunk?

No. At 0.4% ABV your body metabolises the alcohol faster than you can drink it, so it cannot make you drunk. You would feel the effects of a ripe banana before a can of High & Dry.

Are there any effects?

No. You will not feel any instant effect from the mushrooms. We use food grade amounts that are safe and gentle, designed to sit quietly within the beer rather than create a noticeable feeling. We are lager first - functional benefits second. It's like taking vitamins.

Can I have too many mushrooms?

No. The mushroom amounts in High & Dry are safe and food grade. You would need to drink far more than anyone reasonably could for it to approach a high dose - this is not an invitation to try.
