Wiper and True / Track Brewing First Draught Pale Ale

This 0.5% ABV collab vegan beer comes in a 440 ml can and is produced by dealcoholisation, rather than by fermentation to a lower gravity. As well as utilising barley, wheat, oats and spelt, there is something called Citra Hyperboost, which is a concentrated hop extract oil. The billowing frothy head certainly gives off a strong grapefruit aroma. The taste is very much grapefruit, lemon and lime with perhaps some sherbet-like softening. The body is light and well-carbonated and the finish is sharp, meaning it is a refreshing drink but is rather one-dimensional in overall character.
