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.

Pours golden with a fizzy white head. Aroma is of malts, nuts, and mild spice. Taste is malty, with notes of spice, bubblegum, and weak hops. Better than anticipated, but still subpar.

Nice clear golden color with two fingers of frothy white head that settles quickly leaving spotty loops of lacing. Nice musty aroma, pale malts, spicy hops, creamy malt tastes not hint of skunking, mild hop spicing in the finish.

(Canned) Golden. Clear. Little bit butter and hops in nose. Medium bodied and dry palate with lots of carbonation. Hops, butter and bitterness in taste. Bitter aftertaste.

Good Czech Pils. Nothing extraordinary just a sessionable pale pilsner. Easy drinking and highly addictive it is a good beer for any occassion.

Bottle. Clear golden colour. Beautiful big and shiny white head. Aroma of malts and bread. The flavor is sweet with malt and some yeast. I would’ve liked a little more bitterness in the aftertaste. Well made.

Bottle. Pours pale golden, with a big fluffy three-finger beige head, good lacing. Smells of sweet, fruity malt and apples and fresh hay. Thin, crisp, refreshing body. Well balanced mild flavor, with a nice bitter aftertaste. I really enjoy the subtle flavor of Saaz hops. Very drinkable.

Can, draught, bottle, you name it. Golden color, white head. Hoppy aroma. Smooth bitter flavor with some grapefruit and a touch of biscuity malts and a slightly dry finish. Medium-high carbonation, medium body. A good pilsener.
