hopIQ found 10 beers with the same hoppy and dry character as Pinnacle. The first release in the brewery's 2026 Road Trip Series is a strong, hop-forward pale lager that the brewery calls a West Coast Pilsner. It starts crisp, then Simcoe and Centennial push pine and citrus to the front. Riwaka and Nectaron follow with stone fruit and tropical fruit and lift the aroma further. The bitterness is firm, yet the beer stays approachable, and the lager fermentation keeps the finish clean and dry. Ranked by flavour match rather than popularity.
