No matter your reason for abstaining from alcohol or reducing your alcohol intake, this shop is aimed to awaken your curiosity around flavors and textures and how the perfect beverage can really enhance a moment, mood, or meal.
As someone who commutes into the city for events these days, I appreciate having an option for after work drinks that doesn’t involve heavy alcohol consumption. The New Bar is both refreshing and exciting.
Brands at The New Bar San Francisco
Some of my favorite brands they carry are Leitz Eins Zwei Zero, a German alcohol-removed wine and sparkling wine line my friend and I discovered at a restaurant. She was pregnant, and I saw something 0% on the menu. We ordered the Eins Zwei Zero rosé and I tasted it side by side with an ordinary rosé and I was shocked by how similar they were.
The New Bar also carries many new-to-me brands. For instance, Kin Euphorics, co-founded by fashion model Bella Hadid. Another hot new brand is Almave, the alcohol-free tequila brand created by F1 champion Lewis Hamilton, offering both ambar and blanco varieties. Ghia is another trendy zero proof brand I learned about, which offers both nonalcoholic apertifs and ready to drink cocktails.
There is a whole wall of nonalcoholic wines, ciders, and other sparkling elixirs. The other side of the store is full of NA spirits, beer, and ready to drink canned mocktails. No matter which nonalcoholic drink you’re looking for, they most likely have it here. Or the super knowledgable staff can help steer you towards something new you might like.
