Beers similar to Civic Pilsner

Dominion City Brewing Co.

German Pilsner·Canada·4.5% ABV·One of 374 German Pilsners in hopIQ·

hopIQ found 10 beers that share Civic Pilsner's dry and herbal character. A pale, hop-accented lager in the German mould, left unfiltered and unfined so the pour stays faintly hazy. Tettnanger and Saaz give herbal, floral and lightly spicy aroma over a bready pilsner malt base from an Ontario maltster. The finish is dry and crisp, with a grassy bitterness and a clean cracker note. Slow cold lagering and natural carbonation leave a fine, soft bead.
