Sierra Nevada: the brewery that built American craft
Sierra Nevada Brewing was founded in Chico, California in 1980 by Ken Grossman and Paul Camusi, originally as a homebrew shop project. Their flagship Sierra Nevada Pale Ale, launched in 1981, helped define the West Coast Pale Ale style and put Cascade hops on the global brewing map. For UK craft drinkers, Sierra Nevada is a name with proper heritage — one of a small handful of American breweries credited with founding the modern craft beer movement.
What Sierra Nevada is known for
Beyond the iconic Pale Ale, Sierra Nevada's range encompasses Torpedo Extra IPA, Hazy Little Thing IPA, the seasonal Celebration Fresh Hop IPA, and a deep catalogue of stylistic experiments. The brewery's commitment to hop-forward styles, Pacific Northwest hop sourcing, and consistent quality execution has made it the reference point for American craft pale ales globally.
Sierra Nevada Trail Pass IPA
Sierra Nevada's alcohol-free expression — Trail Pass IPA (0.5% ABV) — was launched as part of the wider craft NA wave and applies the brewery's hop expertise to alcohol-free format. Trail Pass delivers a genuine American IPA flavour profile: citrus and pine hop character, proper IPA bitterness, fuller body than most NA pales. It's distinctively American, distinctively craft — a different proposition from European mainstream NA lagers.
Where to find Sierra Nevada Trail Pass
Available through specialist alcohol-free retailers including Dry Drinker and Wise Bartender, and through UK craft bottle shops. Sierra Nevada Trail Pass also appears regularly in curated alcohol-free subscription boxes — see our review of the DryDrop Founders Box for context on indie NA curation.
Who Trail Pass IPA is for
Best for: IPA drinkers, fans of West Coast hop character, and anyone curious about how the American craft scene approaches alcohol-free. A particularly strong recommendation for UK drinkers exploring American craft NA for the first time — see our broader best alcohol-free IPA guide for how it compares.
