COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
It is called the "model of meter" among beers. All other pilsners are a better or worse attempt to copy the original - the first ever Pilsner Urquell. Its unparalleled exceptionality is guaranteed by the same recipe dating from 1842.

Can, BBE 01.01.12. Clear golden colour with thick white head. Great grassy hoppy aroma. Sweet malty and bitterly hoppy taste. Great balance and so refreshing, it’s a true classic!

Bottle 33 cl. A clear golden colour with a medium white head. An aroma of hops, fruit. The taste is medium sweet. A medium body, thin texture, avarage carbonation and a light bitter finish.

12oz bottle, as part of a mixed six my uncle gave me for driving him to the airport. He says this one is his favorite beer of all beers. A Bohemian Pilsner? Never sampled the style before. Hard to tell what the difference is. Clear yellow color, minimal white head. All I can say is that it’s a very good pilsner aroma. Carbonation gives a sharp tingle that peaks through the finish. A slight variation, interesting and a bit more bitter, in a sea of boring and skunky pale lagers, I can see why my Uncle loves this beer.

Der Klassiker und Urvater der Biere Pilsner Brauart und hinreichend beschrieben. Der Nachhall ist mir allerdings zu lang und hopfenlastig. Deshalb von mir keine Top-Bewertung.Test vom 2.12.2006, Gebinde: Glasflasche

wedgie9 (1370) - Nashville, Tennessee, USA - AUG 8, 2011
Tasted on 8/8/11 from a 12oz bottle purchased at Lush Roscoe. Pours clear golden with an average, bubbly white head that recedes rather quickly to a bit of spotty lace. The nose is lightly fruity with bread, hay, and cereal malt, and some underlying spicy hops aroma. The flavor is fairly light, starting off with the hay and bread malt, moving to the spicy hops, and the lightly sweet fruity flavor and caramel malt. The body is light with lively carbonation and a long spicy hops and caramel malt finish.

UPDATED: AUG 26, 2011 Bottle. A better than average pilsener....the first, but not necessarily the best. Okay.

Well I don’t like Pilsners too much but this one is not bad. A little earthy, very grainy.

Can LCBO Pours light golden clear with a medium white head. Floral aroma of hops. Medium bodied with medium carbonation, pleasant. Some initial sweetness with a bitter finish. Quite refreshing on a summer’s night.
