Sierra Nevada Adding Premium Pils Craft Lager

This morning I have an interesting new canned lager coming in 2025 from Sierra Nevada in Chico, CA and Mills River, NC.

This is Premium Pils Craft Lager and it will be a pilsner-style lager that hits 4.7%-AbV. This is the new 12oz can (8.4oz & 1016 16-oz cans below) and stay tuned for release details.

This 5 Aug 2025 update from Sierra Nevada:

8.4 OZ OF PILS PERFECTION  Today is 8.4, and we’re thrilled to announce 8.4-ounce cans of Sierra Nevada PILS! This 8-pack is designed for premium sipping and generous sharing.   The 8.4-ounce size honors European culture—the inspiration for PILS—ensuring every sip is fresh, crisp, and cold. It’s pilsner as it should be, keeping the elegant malt and kiss of hops in perfect balance.   PILS cans will debut in select cities later this month, with a nationwide rollout to follow. Watch PILS cans in all their glory and hear the story behind them.
