These kinds of initiatives support to increase the brand impact on US consumers, which accelerated the sale of non-alcoholic beer brands in the country. Microbreweries have been continuing to establish their space in the US beer market by targeting millennial consumers. As a result, the major manufacturers of non-alcoholic brands are expanding the range of their products in the US to maintain their competitiveness. For instance, in February 2019, Natural Light launched refreshing new strawberry lemonade beer, Naturdays. Anheuser-Busch designed Naturdays keeping whole day refreshment in mind. The company declared that this beer will be available across the US. Therefore, the rising launches of fruit-flavored non-alcoholic brands to cope up with the changing behavior of consumers is contributing to the growth of the market.
