Bravus Brewing Company is an alcohol-free craft brewery founded in Anaheim, California in 2015, and was the first brewery in North America dedicated exclusively to producing alcohol-free craft beers.

Philip Brandes, who had previously worked as a software developer, began brewing alcohol-free beer in a garage in Anaheim in 2015 and built Bravus from there. The name Bravus combines the words "brave" and "us". The brewery uses a proprietary process and yeast that differs from arrested fermentation, where fermentation is halted before significant alcohol develops, and from post-brew alcohol filtration, where alcohol is removed from a fully fermented beer. Both are common approaches in the category, but Bravus uses neither. The brewery has also produced what it describes as the world's first alcohol-free bourbon-barrel-aged brew, applying the barrel-ageing technique from craft brewing to the alcohol-free format.

The range spans IPAs, stouts, ales and porters, along with seasonal styles. Some beers are formulated with electrolytes and antioxidants. Bravus distributes locally across southern California and ships throughout the United States. The brand has been featured in Forbes, The Washington Post, Men's Health and The Spruce. Its beers sit in the premium segment of the alcohol-free market and are positioned for sober-curious drinkers and those seeking craft beer styles without alcohol.
