What the briefings draw on

Two surveys

A national survey of 1,149 U.S. adults 21+ fielded by YouGov, and a survey of 1,003 buyers of alcohol alternatives fielded by Prodege Insights, both in October 2026.

One database

The Dry Atlas Product Database: 3,812 products on the market as of Sept. 30, 2026, so what buyers say sits next to what’s on the shelf.
