These aren't really beers that have great hop profiles (you are unlikely to find many pilsners or lagers that have strong hop characteristics, as this is outside of style guidelines for those types of beers.

If you're just asking for beer snobs of HN to weigh in on their preferred commercial lager, I would take the unpopular position that budweiser is the best option presented here in terms of quality and consistency, though I would prefer trying a lager that i havent had before, to any of these three.

Whatever is on sale.
Honestly surprised to see the downvotes on this reply. It's not a worse answer than the question. While I think there is a discernable difference between these beers, and could feel like having one more than an other depending on my mood, at they end of the day these would be interchangeable to many.
