355ml can - day 15 of the 2018 Parallel 49/Red Racer Alpine Adventure Pack. I don't think that the antipodean ski-hill workers alluded to in the label blurb would appreciate a 3% ABV brew.
This beer pours a clear, pale golden yellow colour, with a teeming tower of puffy, rocky, and somewhat fizzy off-white head, which leaves some decent spotted cloud form lace around the glass as it slowly but surely abates.
It smells of gritty and grainy cereal malt, muddled domestic citrus rind, some stoney flintiness, and more leafy, weedy, and piney green hop bitters. The taste is grainy and crackery pale malt, fading orange and lemon citrus pith, some damp minerality, and more earthy, musty, and resinous piney hoppiness.
The carbonation is average in its palate-placating frothiness, the body a so-so medium weight (surprisingly), and mostly smooth, with a touch of hop astringency maybe not making for the best of neighbours here. It finishes trending dry, the mineral character predominating.
Overall - well, they sure packed a lot of flavour into such a low-test offering. Good and hoppy, and quite drinkable, I suppose, especially if you've had a few other, um, bigger brews in the recent past, which is the norm at this time of the year.
