Drop Bear Pink Grapefruit Cut Lager
By Drop Bear Beer Co · UK
A 0.5% lager cut with pink grapefruit, from Drop Bear’s Cut Lager series, which Drop Bear calls “sharp” and “punchy”, with a “lip-smacking citrus snap”. It has 22 kcal per 100ml. Drop Bear’s own shop had it out of stock when we checked.
At 0.5% ABV, this isn’t alcohol-free under UK guidance, which keeps the term for 0.05% or less. We list it with alcohol-free beers, as UK shops do. How UK labels work
What is Pink Grapefruit Cut Lager?
Pink Grapefruit is one of the four Cut Lagers Drop Bear launched in July 2025, alongside Guava, Peach and Raspberry: lagers “cut with fruit for maximum flavour”, on a base of British hops and malts.
Drop Bear describes it as “sharp” and “punchy”, with a “lip-smacking citrus snap”, and tags it “Zesty & Crisp”. At 22 kcal per 100ml (73 kcal a can) it’s the highest in calories of the Cut Lagers, with 3.6g of carbohydrate but only 0.1g of sugar.
Drop Bear’s shop showed it as out of stock when we checked in October 2026, and Dry Drinker and Wise Bartender don’t sell the Cut Lagers. For a grapefruit hit you can order now, try Lervig No Worries Grapefruit IPA or Kaiserdom Pink Grapefruit.
