Next up, a lager. There are two schools of thought here, you can either keep it classic and nail the colours of Germany or the Czech Republic to the mast, or you can freestyle. Lost Lager is the best of both worlds. BrewDog Head of Production Jason Pond has spent months dialling in a brand new dry-hopped pilsner that has, at its heart, two secret weapons.

The first is the contemporary German hop variety Saphir – renowned for a vibrancy of citrus and stone fruit. The second is the deployment of lager yeast from the world-beating Weihenstephan. Conditioned for 28 days, Lost Lager is destined to be a crisp, clean pilsner with hints of spice and a zesty lime marmalade character. Prepare to lose yourself at the end of the month.

Can from the brewery online shop. Clear yellow straw, decent fast disappearing head. Grainy nose with a hint of sweetness. Flavor is pretty mild, a bit astringent / metallic in the aftertaste. Grainy with not-too-interesting hops. Reminds me of the cheap Asian lagers honestly, not a craft beer... But that's ok if this beer helped someone plant a tree.

Clear golden. Aroma is light mossy with some crystallized honey and herbal floral hops. Some bready character as well. Taste is dry with some noble hop bitterness. Ok drinkability with some rough edges. Not bad.

Unfiltered German style Lager by Brewdog, fitting in their contemporary policy of a slick global craft beer company - the days when a few Scottish punks shook beer drinking Europe with bold and daring experiments seem further away than ever. Snow white, stable, moussy, membrane-lacing head, misty yellow-straw blonde robe. Aroma of chamomile, sweetclover, white bread pulp and sandwiches, plaster, grass, wet cereals, damp kitchen cloth somewhere, lemon zest. Malt-sweetish onset, minerally carbonation, soft and rounded body; some green pear and unripe banana fruitiness retained by the yeast, but otherwise straightforwardly pale malt sweetish, with this pleasant bready edge but also something soapy or plaster-like, a tad glueish even, and a sourish-grainy edge as well. Very floral finish, field flowers and meadow grass, only lightly bitter but expressive enough to even yield something faintly lemony, matching well with lingering minerality and soft malt sweetness underneath. Nicely bready (in a thin, slick way) by being unfiltered, simple yet balanced, a very decent lager indeed - though in a sense more Maibock-like than Pilsener-like.

Can. Pours hazy pale straw with stable white head. Clear aroma of yeast, hops and citrus. Bitter, hoppy and grassy flavour with notes of yeast and malty touches. Estery and hoppy aftertaste with acidic notes. A nice one. That is, I guess, what a modern lager should be.

Sample, thanks oh6gdx! Almost clear pale golden, mid sized head. Faint notes of floral hops and bread up front. Dry with very light body and clean mouthfeel. Watered rice cake, marzipan and elderflowers. Slightly metallic finish with long bitterness. Watery and edgy.

330ml can - Pours a clear light golden colour with a foamy white head. Aroma is bready, pilsner malts with some grassy notes. A moderately sweet taste, light toasted pale malts, straw and bready flavours with a light drying bitterness.

500ml can as Lost Lager Dry-Hopped Pilsner, 4.7 % abv, bought at Eide Handel. Shared with Mari. Hazy yellow-gold body, remaining white head, fair lacing. Moderate lemon and pale malts on the nose. Fine blended taste profile of pale malts, dough, orange. and a lemony bite. Malt-fruity ending, dry and with vague bitterness. Quite alright, and okay partner to our lamb pie. (Tromsø 09.05.2021).
