Bev

The best way to cheers on-the-go and keep your vino celebration flavorful but sugar-free.

About Bev

Gurl, it’s time to get your drink on — responsibly!
In today’s male-dominated alcohol industry (Yeah. Still. Don’t be fooled by the local brunch scene.) — Bev is building a sugar-free wine brand made by women, for women, that celebrates and encourages female empowerment. Boasting five varietals, Rose, Gris, Blanc, Glitz, and Noir, Bev caters to a range of flavor profiles, so you can enjoy your favorite way to wine. Plus, each can is only 100 calories, has 3 carbs, and no sugar.

Why We Love Them

For Bev, Made by Chicks isn’t just a catchphrase stamped on their wine cans, but a quality embedded into Bev’s brand, culture, and bubbly, socially-centered wines. Led by a female winemaker, CEO, and Founder, Bev is challenging the male-dominated alcoholic beverage industry by “breaking the glass,” one brightly-colored can at a time.

Origin Story

Founded by Alix Peabody in May 2017, Bev is a mission-driven beverage company based in Venice, California that is making strides in the traditionally male-dominated industry with flavorful, healthier wines.Her experience in the events planning industry inspired her to build a company that helped women feel comfortable in social situations. First, she bought 300 gallons of rosé, the first Bev varietal. Initially, she passed them out at parties — designed by women, for women — to share her idea and generate some buzz around her new brand. The drinks caught on, and Bev was born. Five varietals and thousands of happy customers later, Bev is continuing to empower women and “break the glass” through great-tasting, sugar-free, femme-focused, socially-designed wine.

The Science & The Soul

The Science

Not only do Bev’s canned drinks taste great, but with zero sugar, they are also better for you. Eliminating sugar in wine eliminates a lot of those nasty after-effects such as hangovers, headaches, and grogginess. Each drink comes in an easy to carry, not to mention fun and colorful, Bev-branded can that contains only 3 carbs and roughly 160 calories. Each can is about 1.5 glasses of wine, or 11% ABV,  so it’s perfect when you want a glass (and a half) without having to open a full bottle.

The Soul

Bev supports and inspires woman-lead businesses while creating their own product that disrupts an industry with few women in leadership positions. Bev’s mission is to build a more inclusive, respectful drinking culture; something that is incredibly important to ensure everyone feels comfortable, safe, and in control of their own fun. With values like vulnerability, candor, accountability, kindness, and passion, Bev continues to empower women by encouraging them to challenge gendered traditions and support each other.
