The beer

Dry Curious West Coast Pilz is a hop-forward pilsner from Beaglepuss, the Providence, Rhode Island-based nonalcoholic craft beer project founded by Jarad Rogers, head brewer Kevin Barnes, and Patrick Ramey. Styled after modern West Coast pilsners that pair a crisp lager grain bill with American hop aromatics, Dry Curious is packaged in 16 fl oz tallboy cans.

In Rhode Island Monthly, head brewer Kevin Barnes explained that Beaglepuss produces its beers through limited fermentation—restricting the amount of alcohol generated during fermentation to less than 0.5% ABV—rather than brewing a full-strength beer and stripping the alcohol afterward. Because the producer’s Wix storefront page for Dry Curious (BPDC006) states only “Non-alcoholic” and describes a pilsner-malt base with late West Coast hop additions without reprinting the fermentation protocol or numeric ABV ceiling, the naturally low alcohol classification is held at verified: no until the physical can is inspected.

One single 16 fl oz can was purchased from NA Beer Market at $5.49 for cellar evaluation. Until that can is poured and assessed firsthand by The Dry Standard, this entry remains an unscored research profile with no sensory notes.

Research notes

The producer product page identifies Dry Curious (SKU BPDC006) as a non-alcoholic West Coast Pilz built on pilsner malt and late additions of West Coast hops, sold in a 4-pack of 16 oz cans for $17.99. The producer page states "Non-alcoholic" without a numeric ABV or ingredient list. In Rhode Island Monthly, Beaglepuss head brewer Kevin Barnes stated that Beaglepuss uses limited fermentation to restrict alcohol formation during fermentation to less than 0.5% ABV rather than dealcoholizing full-strength beer; because that statement is brand-wide press reporting rather than a Dry Curious label or technical sheet, verified remains no. Producer and retailer flavor descriptions (citrus, pine, dank resin, bone-dry finish) are not a Dry Standard tasting.
