Days Brewing Alcohol-Free Beers

Q: Who owns Days?

Sunrise Alliance Beverages, which owns St Peter’s Brewery in Suffolk, has held at least 75% of Better Beverage Company, the company behind Days, since 1 May 2026, Companies House shows. Sunrise describes itself as independent, and its May 2026 announcement called Days “the UK’s leading independent 0.0% beer brand”, but because Days now belongs to a larger drinks group, we don’t show it as independent. The founders stayed with the business.

Q: Where are Days beers brewed?

By a brewing partner Days doesn’t name. The packs, as Tesco lists them, say Scotland; Days’s own site now says only “Brewed in the UK”. We used to say the beers were brewed in Germany, and that Days had its own brewery in London; neither is right.

Q: How is Days beer made?

It’s brewed and then de-alcoholised, Days says. When it relaunched its Lager in 2025, the trade press reported a traditional Helles recipe with Weihenstephan yeast, de-alcoholised at low temperature. We used to say Days brewed without alcohol from the start. That’s how Days described its first recipe, but today it says it brews and then de-alcoholises.

Q: Is Days alcohol-free?

Both beers in our directory are labelled 0.0% ABV, as Tesco lists them. UK government guidance, which is voluntary, allows drinks at 0.05% ABV or below to be called alcohol-free. More in our 0.0% vs 0.5% guide.

Q: What beers do Days make?

Four, all 0.0%: Days Lager, Days Pale Ale, and two limited-edition fruit lagers, Peach Lager and Passion Fruit Lager. There’s no Days wheat beer or IPA, though we used to list both.

Q: Where can I buy Days?

On 28 October 2026 Tesco had Days Lager at four cans for £5, Dry Drinker had Days Pale Ale in bottles, and Days’s own shop listed both in cans. Dry Drinker had Days Lager sold out, and Wise Bartender doesn’t sell Days.

Two Days beers in our directory: Days Lager, which we score 7.8, and Days Pale Ale, 7.9. Both are 0.0%.

Who are Days?

Mike Gammell, who worked at AB InBev, and Duncan Keith, who worked at Propercorn, set Days up in Edinburgh. The company was registered in November 2019, and the beers went on sale in 2020. Days doesn’t own a brewery: a brewing partner makes its beers, in Scotland according to Tesco’s listings, though Days’s own site now says only “Brewed in the UK”. The company’s registered office is in London; we used to say Days was founded there, but it’s an Edinburgh business.

In May 2026 Sunrise Alliance Beverages, which owns St Peter’s, Curious, Portobello and Gipsy Hill breweries and brews Efes and Orion in the UK under licence, took control: Companies House shows it has held at least 75% of the company since 1 May 2026. The May 2026 announcement of the deal still called Days “the UK’s leading independent 0.0% beer brand”, but because Days now belongs to a larger drinks group, we no longer show it with our Independent badge. Days also says it’s a certified B Corp.

How Days makes alcohol-free beer

Days brews its beers and then removes the alcohol: its site talks about “a state-of-the-art de-alcoholisation technique”. When it relaunched its Lager in May 2025, the trade press reported a traditional Helles recipe, with Bavarian Weihenstephan yeast, Hallertau hops and a stepped fermentation, de-alcoholised at low temperature. We used to say Days brewed without alcohol from the start. That’s how Days described its first recipe, but today it de-alcoholises its beers. We also said it brewed in Germany, which was never right.

The Days range

Days Lager is 0.0% and 10 kcal per 100ml on the label; Days describes it as “clean, crisp & sessionable, with floral and citrus notes”, and we score it 7.8. Days Pale Ale is 0.0% and 21 kcal per 100ml, hopped with CTZ, Magnum and Herkules; Days describes “tropical overtones and a satisfyingly clean grapefruit finish”, and we score it 7.9. Both are vegan, the labels say, and neither is gluten-free.

Days also sells two limited-edition fruit lagers, Peach Lager and Passion Fruit Lager, both 0.0%, which aren’t in our directory yet. There’s no Days wheat beer or Days IPA, though we used to list both.
