341ml bottle - day 2 of the 2018 Parallel 49/Red Racer Alpine Adventure Pack. A dry-hopped version of their Pilsner, which is an odd choice for inclusion in such a packaging format.
This beer pours a slightly hazy, medium golden yellow colour, with three flabby fingers of puffy, loosely foamy, and bubbly off-white head, which leaves some random splotchy lace around the glass as it gradually sinks away.
It smells of gritty and grainy cereal malt, mildly dank pine resin, muddled domestic citrus rind, further mixed melon fruity notes, some earthy yeastiness, and very plain leafy, weedy, and floral green hop bitters. The taste is grainy and crackery pale malt, more mixed melon and citrus fruitiness, lager yeast, and some bland earthy, musty, and dead floral hoppiness.
The carbonation is pretty tame in its innocuous-seeming frothiness, the body a so-so middleweight, and generally smooth, with nothing really existing here that might be a cause for concern. It finishes trending dry, the malt tailing off in the face of the lingering hops.
Overall - I suppose that this does differ from their base lager, as the hop profile is certainly more robust. Still, it's not exactly floating my proverbial boat as I watch the snow fly outside, and thus would prefer something a little more, well, seasonal.
