hopIQ found 10 beers with the same clean and dry character as Great Northern Original. The full-strength lager the brand launched with in 2010, brewed from Australian pale malt, lager yeast and a single light-stable hop chosen to keep sunlight from marking the beer. It pours light golden and opens with a soft fruity aroma of apple and pear that comes from the yeast rather than the hops. The malt stays lean and grainy behind it, with a faint cracker sweetness, while the bitterness sits low and grassy. Brisk carbonation, a thin body and a clean dry finish. Ranked by flavour match rather than popularity.
