No date on the can.
It pours a clear straw yellow with a finger of foam.
The smell is hoppy but with Galaxy hops vs the usual noble hops that I expect from a Pilsner. Suburban style Pilsner? What the heck is that??
The taste is hoppy and grainy, hop bitterness is not of the noble kind. Earthy, almost to a tropical fruitiness but not quite. Good but could be better with a more traditional approach, whether it be German or Czech.
Good mouthfeel though I reckon that the carbonation could be bumped up some.
When I think of Pilsners, this will not be near the top of my list.
