3.9 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20
Pilsner Urquell has a medium, white head and a clear, golden appearance, with fine suspended white particles throughout. Carbonation is moderate, and the aroma is of bread (not skunked, either- green bottle). The taste is delicious, with bread and barley malt the key features, and a nice hop background. Mouth-feel is light and watery, and Pilsner Urquell finishes refreshing and not as dry as American-style lagers. Overall, I really enjoyed this sample and highly recommend giving this beer a try.

Dark gold colour, with small white head. Aroma is typical pilsner with intensive yeast and hops fragrances. Taste is medium bitter, with low-key yeast inthe after-taste.
3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 11/20
Bottle courtesy and shared with the in-law. Nice sweet malt in the nose, continues in the sip with mild bitter overtones. Not my favorite style, but a very nice beer!
3.4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 12/20
12 oz bottle into pilsner glass. Crystal clear straw color with bright white head and lively carbonation. Minimal lacing. Very gentle aroma of doughy malt. Very little hops in the nose. Taste is initially all about malt, with lightly sweet grain dominating most of the drink. The finish is dominated by a good deal of bitterness, with the hop character being very refined...a little spicy, a little earthy. No citrus or pine in these noble Saaz hops. Good clean lager fermentation with no esters that I can detect, although I do get a bit diacetyl. A light and dry mouthfeel. The style is not my favorite, but I could drink a lot of this beer. It’s the beer that defines the Pilsener for a reason. No corn of rice in this one!
3.5 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
Clear yellow, medium head. Crisp hops and malts in the nose. Malty sweetness (with notes of caramel) transforms into a pleasantly strong hoppy finish. Very nice and refreshing.
2.7 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 10/20
