This week I'm chatting with Tony Robinson, co-founder of Lifted - the UK's first 0.0% high protein craft lager made for athletes.
Tony and his wife, Rebecca, launched their unique offering to solve a problem they were both experiencing - wanting additional protein in their diets whilst enjoying alcohol-free options after workouts.
With over 250,000 cans sold and a fiercely loyal customer base, Lifted sits at the intersection of fitness culture and mindful drinking.
Tony shares the challenges of creating a category of one, the lengthy R&D process of making protein beer actually taste good, and why they're determined to stay true to their "brewed for the stronger you" mission despite knowing that the requests for an alcoholic version would sell a lot easier.
