Kingston-born actor Tom Holland launched an alcohol-free beer Bero last month, and unsurprisingly, it quickly sold out.

However, the Superman actor's beer is now back in stock and can be bought online and at Soho House venues.

Bero was created in light of Holland's own journey to sobriety, with the actor having first given up booze three years ago.

 The launch came at a time in which many of us are cutting back on alcohol (AKA 'Dry January') or giving up on drinking entirely in order to prioritise healthier habits, improved mental health and longevity.

The idea for Bero began in 2022, when Holland decided to do Dry January a go but found that all he could think about was having a drink.

"I was definitely addicted to alcohol. [I'm] not shying away from that at all," he previously admitted on the Jay Shetty Podcast.

The actor then decided to extend the Dry January challenge until his birthday on 1 June, and after six months discovered he was "the happiest I'd ever been in my life".

According to The Independent, Bero was created to provide those in a similar position – looking to cut out or cut down on alcohol – with an appealing alternative they could be "excited to enjoy".

Bero has launched in three flavours, and each is "a direct reflection of its founder's lived experience and outlook on life", says the team of beer experts that created them.

This is because, along with tasting like the real beers that Holland has always enjoyed drinking, each is named after a significant part of the actor's life.

"The Kingston Golden Pils takes its moniker from Holland's hometown of Kingston," says The Independent.

The brewers say it promises, "a fresh take on the bright and timeless, crisp European Pils".

Bero can be bought online in packs of six, 12, 18 or 24 direct from berobrewing.com. 

But it is advised that these beers are likely to sell out quickly again, so get yours while you can.
