Beers similar to Breakside Pilsner

Breakside Brewery

German Pilsner·United States·5% ABV·One of 370 German Pilsners in hopIQ·

hopIQ found 10 beers that share Breakside Pilsner's hoppy and malty character. Breakside's unfiltered German-style pilsner — Pilsner malt imported from Germany, hops from the Hallertau, natural cold lagering rather than filtration. Bright golden, dense floral-noble hop nose, snap-crisp finish. Not a craft pilsner using shortcuts — a proper one done the way the country of origin does it. Portland with a Munich heart.
