Driftwood Brewery Pilsner Doehnel – Pilsener at 5% ABV

Driftwood Brewery Pilsner Doehnel Pilsener at 5% ABV (C$6.95 at Sundance Wine Market, 650 ml, no bottle date or best before)

Appearance: hazy pale straw with one fat finger of fluffy white head, excellent retention and well-defined lacing. (4/5) Aroma: lemon zest, grassy, biscuity malt. (8/10) Taste: medium-light sweet and medium bitter. (8/10) Palate: light body, moderate carbonation, crisp and light bitter finish. (4/5)

Dunno whether this adheres all that closely to the style, but it’s definitely a lot of fun: quite bright and citrusy, with a clean crisp finish. Far more interesting than a more typical pilsener. (16/20)
