Awaiting tasting

The beer

Crux Fermentation Project’s NØMØ IPA is from Bend, Oregon. The redesigned can prints NØMØ, Non Alcoholic Brew, less than 0.5% alcohol by volume, IPA, Brewed in Oregon, and CRUX. It does not print River Refresher. Earlier Crux pages and an earlier can still used that name; both names stay on the record.

Justin Poncelet says both NØMØ beers use limited fermentation, and that this IPA is hopped with Citra, Mosaic, and Galaxy. The archived shop page names Citra and Mosaic only. A 2021 Crux press release, reprinted by The Brew Site, says NØ MØ was built as a near beer rather than a beer that had its alcohol removed later.

The beer page has listed the SKU at 10 IBU under the River Refresher name. The archived shop page lists a 12-pack of 12 oz cans at $26, with 30 calories and 3 carbs per can. The Bend on-tap list shows the IPA on draft.

This is a research record. The shop’s Paste Magazine quote and the can’s tropical-citrus marketing line stay off the public tasting fields. Shipping from the shop is limited to those seven western states; Oregon and Washington grocery is the broader shelf story on the beer page.

Research notes

On 6 November 2026 Justin Poncelet asked that the beers be listed as Crux Fermentation Project - NØMØ IPA and Crux Fermentation Project - NØMØ Hazy, and shared redesigned can artwork. Earlier public pages and an editorial still used River Refresher IPA / NØMØ by crux fermentation; those prior names stay in discrepancies. The June 2021 Crux press release, reprinted by The Brew Site, says NØ MØ was created with traditional brewing methods, sits under 0.5% ABV, and was not made by removing alcohol from a finished beer. Paste Magazine tasting copy on the shop page is not this desk.
