Acknowledging the Shift Towards Alcohol-Free Options
The inclusion of Lucky Saint Alcohol-Free Lager is particularly noteworthy. Luke Boase, the founder of Lucky Saint, expressed pride in being the first alcohol-free beer featured in the Tesco Finest Dine In range. He noted the increasing demand for alcohol-free options, as more consumers opt for non-alcoholic beverages throughout the week and on weekends.
Karen Tyrell, CEO of the charity Drinkaware, echoed this sentiment, highlighting the growing popularity of low and no-alcohol drinks. She stated, “This is a great move. Our research shows that low and no-alcohol drinks are increasing in popularity, with around a third of people now using them to moderate their drinking.” The addition of Lucky Saint provides a genuine option for those looking to enjoy a meal without the effects of alcohol, aligning with the Chief Medical Officer’s low-risk drinking guidelines.
