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.

Colore giallo dorato con poca schiuma bianca,l’aroma č leggermente di luppolo,sapore maltato con un finale di luppolo.Bevibile e rinfrescante.Ma attualmente un gradino sotto la Budvŕr nel gradimento delle pils ceche.

Boy, I’m kind of shocked by all the low ratings. It seems that if a beer has lower than 6% ABV it’s going to get a low rating on this site. I judged this one against others of its style. I’m not a huge pils fan but this is probably among the best of the style. I will admit that I have gotten some pretty skunky ones in this country but in Europe I’ve found them quite drinkable. Obviously if you sip this after a Belgium trippel its beer water but against other pils’ it definitely holds its own. If you dont like it get a fresh one, if you still don’t like it get another style.

On tap at The Irish Pub(nyc). The only word I can think of to describe Pilsener urquell is SMOOTH. This is the smoothest beer i’ve ever had. Needless to say it goes down easy. Pleasant taste(slightly sweet) and crisp finish.

Hefty bitter after taste that lingers for awhile. Not my favorite and I would probably choose water over this if offered.

Draught. Golden colour with a small white head. Hoppy nose with some malts. Grassy hops, buttery, malts and bitterness. Medium-bodied and some bitterness in the aftertaste. Very good and refreshing pilsener.

[Look]: Deep golden color with a nice head. [Smell]: Very spicy nose, nice dry maltiness, hint of fruity and honey. [Taste]: Spicy and floral hops, biscuity, hint of roasted honey. Light to medium bodied. Very crisp and dry finish. [Overall]: One of the best pilsner in the world, also more stonger and flavorable than other typical pilsner I had.

bottle, pours light gold with a white head. Aroma is lightly hoppy with a slight skunk. Soft mouth with an almost creamy body. Sweet light malt body with a hoppy finish that ends on the dry side and begs for another sip. Delicate and refreshing.
