It’s hard to believe that Libra is celebrating four years of balance, and what a journey it’s been! From our very first brew to becoming a staple in the non-alcoholic craft beer scene, we’ve stayed true to our mission of helping people rediscover their energy without sacrificing the social rituals they love. As we reflect on this milestone, we’re excited to share how living a more balanced, alcohol-free lifestyle can positively impact your energy levels and well-being.
The Power of Balance
When we started Libra, it was with a simple idea: that balance is the key to living a fulfilled life. Over the last four years, we’ve learned that true balance isn’t just about avoiding alcohol—it’s about creating a lifestyle that leaves you feeling energized and alive. Every time you reach for a Libra instead of an alcoholic beverage, you’re making a choice that supports your body, mind, and well-being.
Choosing balance allows you to experience all the highs of life—without the lows of hangovers, fatigue, or sluggishness. It’s about waking up refreshed, with more energy to spend on the things that matter most to you: work, hobbies, relationships, and personal growth.
Celebrating Our Accomplishments
As we celebrate four years of balance, it’s important to reflect on how far we’ve come this past year alone. We’ve grown in ways that keep pushing boundaries for non-alcoholic options and creating more inclusive spaces for everyone. Here’s a snapshot of what we’ve achieved:
Awarded Food and Beverage Atlantic’s 2023 Rising Star Award
Launched into Sobeys AND Loblaws locations nationwide—bringing more balance to Canadians coast-to-coast
Nominated by Brewers Journal Canada as Brewery of the Year—a major accomplishment as a non-alcoholic brewery
Hosted a sober Cinq à Sept event with our friends at ArtHaus, expanding inclusive social events
Released Canada’s first non-alcoholic Saison—Lemongrass Ginger Saison
Launched into ANBL for the first time with our Lemongrass Ginger Saison
Sponsored over 100 events across the country, including major partnerships at Halifax Jazz Festival, Vancouver International Jazz Festival, Harvest Music Festival, and Somersault Events
Won Bronze in the no-to-low category at the Canadian Brewing Awards
Re-launched into Costco with our IPA for the summer, making non-alc options even more accessible
Looking Ahead: A Future of Balance
As we celebrate our four-year milestone, we remain dedicated to creating a future where balance is the norm, not the exception. Reimagining social events without alcohol isn’t about giving up the fun—it’s about approaching these moments with a new mindset. By staying present, focusing on connection, and bringing along non-alcoholic options like Libra, you can still enjoy the traditions you love, without the pressure of drinking.
This year, as we mark Libra’s fourth birthday, we’re raising a toast (with a Libra, of course!) to everyone who has supported us along the way. We couldn’t have done it without you, and we’re excited to continue redefining what balance means for all of us in the years to come. Here’s to celebrating, connecting, and rediscovering our energy—together!
