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.

Aroma is initially skunky, then a combination of lemony hops and grainy malt. Flavor is also lightly hopped, and balanced with malt and a slightly bitter finish. May be the original, but definitely not the best. Somewhat unique, but a mass-produced character overall.

Entirely forgettable, but not horrible. Rather bland, perhaps a hint of apple taste if anything.

Poured from 12 oz bottle. Nice golden color, relatively translucent. Smell isn’t overpowering, but is pleasant. I taste rice and corn which gets taken over by a decent hoppy bite before fading back into a corn/rice finish. I’d say it’s pretty middle of the road, but enjoyable.

Bottle. Gold yellow pour with a white head. Smells of skunk awfulness. Taste is light wheat but mainly that same skunk awfulness. Fizzy, and generally displeasing.

Pours smoothly to a fine white head. Slightly fruity aroma. Taste is strong but not bitter with no aftertaste.

I know this is the Czech beer that you can find anywhere and it tastes like it. A rough drink around the edges. NOthing refined here.

golden in color with white head aromas of skunk due to bottle color and maybe not being fresh taste of skunk
