The Appeal of Non-Alcoholic Beer

Non-alcoholic beer is gaining popularity, especially during the summer months, making it a great addition to a beverage repertoire. Various factors influence the choice of non-alcoholic beer among consumers, including flavor, diversity of styles, and packaging appeal.

Glory and humiliation...it's what friendly competition is all about. We bring both together in the annual TAFS Wins Pool. Robert Mays and Derrik Klassen selected seven teams apiece with the goal of assembling the group that combines for the most wins this season. This year's twist...their final two picks had to be teams projected by the betting markets to win fewer than seven games. The winner will achieve personal glory. The loser will suffer the humiliation of paying off a bet on Radio Row during Super Bowl week. Friendly competition is the best, isn't it?
