Sierra Nevada Nooner Pilsner?!

Really looking forward to having a go-to hoppy pils that is always available and fresh at a reasonable price point.

 

Jever is usually my go to Pilsner when available. Nooner has more spice and herbal hop qualities, but is significantly less bitter than Jever. Nooner is very smooth and extremely drinkable, more so than Jever.

 

found 6 packs of bottles but no cans yet

 

A staff meeting with Bigfoot sounds like a great idea.
Send it to Just Keep Tastin'
They'll gladly test it out.

 

that's how it is here, but pretty much everyone I know sneaks beers on in their bags or just hides the cooler on the cart somehow. golf course beers are ridiculous.

 

Picked it up soon as it popped up at my local gas station. Super light and crisp but with the deep hops character you'dexpect from Sierra Nevada. I am rarely impressed by pilsners but this one is dank. Definitely outshines Sommerfest

 

Picked up another 6 last night. Strange pricing going on though - my first six pack a couple weeks ago was $9.99. Last night it was $7.49. The 12 pack of cans was $16.99 last night. Something not quite right there.

 

Yayyyyyyy a pilsner...

 

Stumbled upon a 6 pack of bottles today for $8. Looking forward to my first sample this evening.

 

Picked up a single, had it last night, definitely enjoyed it. Would like to see this in the summer for sure.

 

I've seen it on the shelves here lately, however with the single digit temps we've been having I have been moving more towards stouts, barleywines and high abv beers. I do want to pick this up as I think this may become part of my spring/summer rotation.

 

I work for Sierra its a year round beer!!!!

 

Grabbed a six pack last night (SoCal). Tasty and well executed! I might need to pick up another sixes today...

 

Not really a fan of the pilsner style but I really liked this one. I'll probably pick up more soon.

 

12-pack cans here for $13.99. Super tasty and, thank the Lord, not hopped to death. More craft lagers is always a good thing, especially as this price point.

 

I enjoy a hoppy pilsner but I found this one to be a tad underwhelming. Not saying its bad but I think I might have expected it to be the hoppiest pilsner on the market since its SN and clearly is is not that.

 

Glad to hear this, not crazy bout hopped up brews outside the style.

 

It's in Florida for sure. Picked up a 6er this week. Sadly not a fan, this is the first SN beer I really haven't liked. It's hard to put my finger on but it has a harshness to it. It's not bad at all, just not for me. Sixpoint Crisp is my favorite in this category. Luckily I also picked up 2 bottles of Harvest for a special day.

 

Kinda how I feel every time a brewery releases yet another IPA

Honestly, coming from someone who loves both Sierra Nevada and pilsners, this one just didn't do it for me. It didn't have that clean and refreshing taste that I come to expect from the style. It had a breadiness, for lack of a better word coming to mind, that just seemed out of place. I might give it another try down the road but for now I've already got my go-to's established

 

Looking forward to this one.
