Something that you can pick up whether you’re dropping alcohol, or simply cracking between your favourite craft double IPAs, Nonny is here to slow things down and bring balance to your life. Nonny currently brews 3 core beers and rotating seasonal brews using traditional ingredients, without the traditional downside. All natural, and no preservatives.

People's Choice
Why do you think you should win the Premier’s People’s Choice Award?
A product of two brothers, Leigh and Lane Matkovich, Nonny was created to bring the fun of craft beer to the historically bland world of non-alcoholic beers. Still a team of three, with Lane’s wife joining the team, we’re proud to have accomplished a lot with little resources. It’s tough for us to write this as we have a long way to go, but stepping back, we’re excited to celebrate what we’ve accomplished so far. Market Growth and Expansion: In the past few years we have grown to be available in over 500 locations, including Whole Foods, Michelin-star restaurants, and your local dives and breweries. This expansion highlights market presence and the increasing demand for high-quality non-alcoholic options, and we excited to announce the launch in another west coast staple in the coming months . Until recently, most growth has been fuelled by Leigh on the sales end, building relationships, and bringing on amazing on-premise and grocery partners. We’ve now enlisted Horizon as our distribution partner, and are excited to grow with them from here. Industry and Consumer Recognition: Our brand identity and community engagement have made Nonny a now recognizable brand among those looking for healthier non-alc options. We doubled our door count from 2022 to 2023, highlighting our rapid growth and market acceptance. Nonny was also included in Untapped’s top non-alc beer options for 2023. We’re happy to celebrate a high rate of returning customers, and always left smiling with all these wonderful reviews. We promise this list is not curated! Nonny Reviews: https://nonny.beer/pages/nonny-reviews Our journey is marked by treating Nonny as a vessel for creativity, and driving an increase in the health and wellness of people and the planet. From supporting local artists and grassroots communities to participating in events like VIMFF, Vancouver Mural Festival, Coast Mental Health, By the Hour Comedy, North Shore, Squamish, and Whistler Mountain Bike Associations, and events promoting environmental activism to help amplify causes we care about. Our brewing process uses only the four traditional ingredients: hops, yeast, barley, and water. This all-natural approach, with no additives or preservatives, ensures the highest quality product you’d expect in a craft beer.
