Nectaron Hazy Pale Ale
For all Hazy lovers

One of the best non alcoholic beers out there. If you love your jazzy but not the aftermath, this is it.

Love the way I can combine my favourites into a box. The Chocolate Stout for the colder weather with some Golden Lager and Sunbreaker Ale for when I want something more refreshing.

Very pleasant pale ale., better when not overly chilled.

Golden Lager
Really good for a non-alcoholic lager

Really good for a non-alcoholic lager. I'm not into fruity beer or beer that tastes too "boutique brewy" so this one is just like a good lager. Love it.

Golden Lager
Damn tasty 👍

I bought a carton at the good food and wine festival in Perth on the weekend. Sampled some at the booth and didn't even realise it was no alcohol beer until i got home and loaded it into the fridge 🤣
Well done State Of Play you guys have knocked it out of the park!! Stunning beer 👏

THE SOP GENESIS

After 25 years in big beer our founder Grant Caunter got bored with the booze (and being 50kgs overweight). He still loved beer but his affair with alcohol was over. Hello to a world of non-alc! In NZ back in 2022 there was not a lot of choice, so who better to start NZ’s zero alcohol brewery.

THE ANYWHERE BEER

We’ve seen State of Players enjoying our brews under waterfalls; while bike-riding in the forest; next to rivers and lakes; up mountains and while relaxing in mineral pools. And we asked ourselves – have we just invented ‘The Anywhere Beer’?
