The American twist in PILS is the use of Crystal Lupulin to deliver a signature Sierra Nevada flavor profile.

Bought locally.
Pours a clear straw yellow with over a finger of foam, retention is good, lacing is decent.
Smell is noble hop like aroma, caramel malt with some bread, light aromas overall.
Taste is light hop bitterness, light bread, pale malt, generally light overall. Again.
Light bodied, I would not bother drinking this again.

Perfectly acceptable pils, light and easy-drinking, offsetting a gentle pilsner malt sweetness and a light floral hop bitter finish with a touch of spicy noble hop character. Doesn’t reinvent the wheel (but apparently the can is a big deal).

Amber with a large creamy white head that left great lacing. Tangy and citric. Medium finish and body.

Can as part of beer club. Solid everyday Pils - probably a little better on tap, but still very decent

8.4oz can. Bright hop tone, some bitterness, but the hop choice just doesn't work. Really nice dryness, but the hop character just makes it feel off. Great body, poor hop choice.

Can at a kid birthday party: pours gold with white head. Citrusy hop profile and a little grainy and bready. Fairly crisp with good hop notes to round it out. Solid.
