The Brewer calls this a, "New Zealand Stykle Pilsner." Given the hops used, sure, why not. Given that is not a choice here, it has been listed based on the standard pilsner Hopfly has already produced. Feel free to judge based on your own opinions.

Pours crystal clear and pale straw. This one is very pretty, with a short-lived, thin, white head. An exceptionally rare, stray bubble occasionally materializes within an old Pilsner glass.
The aroma is spectacularly clean, fresh, and crisp. Light sweetness of honeysuckle gives way to light, spicy grain and a combination of spicy and floral hops.
The flavor follows the aroma, with all the subtleties working well together. A bitter bite up front gives way to mild sweetness in the middle and returns with mild, lingering bitterness in a seemingly eternal finish. Faint, peppery watercress comes out as it warms.
It has a light body and fine, silky smooth texture. Alcohol is as expected and the carbonation is pleasant.
This is a perfect drinking beer and may be the most enjoyable Pilsner I have had to date. It is certainly the best Pilsner in recent memory.
