Clear golden amber brew with plenty of foam in the Orval chalice. Blueberry in the nose with the usual grainy aroma. Tangy and a little woody on the tongue. Flavors of pine and lime peel. Overall this is quite interesting stuff. Highly sippable as I am trying to get a review written before it disappears, but a little astringent for such a lightweight. From the 16 oz can purchased at Elizabeth Station. Dated 2/19/25.

16oz can purchased at Uprise Brewing. The stamp on the bottom of the can seems to indicate it was canned on February 21, 2025. Although purchased at Uprise, it appears to have been canned in Seattle at Project 9.
Poured into a 16oz dimpled mug, this was a clear golden amber, with a decent sized off-white head.
Robust hop aromas (from a hop bill of Mittelfruh, Motueka, and Krush-Hyperboost, per the can label) greeted the workers at my olfactory, but only to a level consistent with a happy pilsner. It's not a hop aroma strong enough to be detected across a room, which means it's suitable for the style.
Suitable for the style, maybe, but still not tasting like a simple, crisp pilsner experience. I'd say it's closer to a "Cold IPA." Having said that, it's not bad at all. Assertively hoppy for a 4.9% beer, finishing cleanly, you could do a lot worse.
Unfortunately, it's not terribly pilsner like in the mouth feel. It's not unpleasant in that regard but I find myself wishing it was a little more crisp.
Even if it doesn't seem overly pilsner-ish, it's a still quite enjoyable hoppy lager, and would hit the spot on a hot day.
