Best Australian Non-Alcoholic Beers

Right now, this mostly means Heaps Normal.

Australia is one of the more interesting regional directions in NA beer because the range already covers the beers people actually want around: a lager, an XPA, a hazy, and a fuller IPA. At the moment, Heaps Normal is doing most of that work. The brewery describes itself as an independent alcohol-free beer company, and its current lineup includes Another Lager, Quiet XPA, Half Day Hazy, and Third IPA. Limited releases like Fling Fresh Orange Sour and past darker releases like Coffee Run Stout widen the picture even more.

Another Lager

Another Lager is the first bottle most people should try.

It is the broadest, most practical beer in the range: pub food, fried food, game night, and ordinary cold-beer situations where the can should not need much explanation. Heaps’ own copy leans exactly in that direction.

Quiet XPA

Quiet XPA is the most flexible beer in the lineup.

Heaps describes tropical and citrus aroma, balanced bitterness, and a beery finish, which makes it the bottle for anyone who wants something brighter than lager but less committed than IPA.

Half Day Hazy

Half Day Hazy gives the range its softer, fruit-led side.

It keeps the brewery from becoming only lager plus pale ale, and it is the bottle for drinkers who want tropical hops without too much bite. Heaps includes it in the current beer range alongside the core cans.

Third IPA

Third IPA matters because it gives the brewery a more assertive hop option.

That helps round out the lineup for people who want something firmer than XPA or hazy beer. Even without overcomplicating it, it helps make Heaps look like a brewery with a full beer fridge, not just three softer options.

Bottom line

Start with Another Lager for the most practical everyday bottle. Go to Quiet XPA when you want the easiest hop-forward option. Pick Half Day Hazy for softer tropical character, and Third IPA when the glass needs more bite.
