Celebrations are continuing here at Lyre's HQ, with our non-alcoholic spirits picking up a raft of massive awards in recent weeks.

Die Drink Easy Awards sind eine Feier der australischen Getränke und der Kultur, die das Brauen, Destillieren und Fermentieren umgibt.

Lyre's Non-Alcoholic Spirits performed extremely well in the non-alcoholic category, taking out the gold, silver and two additional Top Ten placings amongst a field of non-alcoholic beers, wines, RTDs and Spirits.

The judges declared Gold winner Lyre's Italian Orange was: "Super enjoyable with something light and fizzy for bitter orange soda vibes. The perfect Italian summer in a glass, sans the booze."

They said Silver winner Lyre's Aperitif Rosso: "Would definitely work well as a spritz. Lovely acidity, balanced bitterness and citrus rounds this out to perfection."

Lyre's Coffee Origionale and Amaretti rounded out this impressive showing, picking up sixth and seventh places respectively.

Even more remarkable however, was Lyre's debut in the inaugural Concours d’Spirits competition, where our non-alcoholic products won high praise when judged against their full-strength counterparts.

Lyre’s Aperitif Rosso was one of only five double gold medals presented across all categories of the Concours d’Spirits, which is judged blind by 12 world-renowned palates and leaders within the wine and spirits industry.

“It’s incredibly unexpected and very much appreciated that within six months of launching, our range of Lyre’s non-alcoholic spirits are being recognised this way," said our co-founder and CEO Mark Livings.

"Diese Preisrichter gehören zu den bestqualifizierten Gaumen der Getränkewelt, so dass unser Angebot an alkoholfreien Getränken bis hin zu besseren alkoholischen Äquivalenten praktisch beispiellos ist.

"Antworten wie diese geben uns große Zuversicht, dass unser Angebot den Menschen wirkliche Freiheit gibt, sich für ein alkoholarmes oder alkoholfreies Getränk zu entscheiden und es zu genießen".

Judged blind by the experts, Lyre's Non-Alcoholic Spirits also received three silver medals for our Orange Sec, White Cane Spirit and Aperitif Dry.

Need we give you any more evidence that Lyre's spirits taste just like the real thing?
