2.9 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Draught. Clear golden colour with large white head. Hoppy aroma with some malt in it. Bitter hops and some malt as well as butanedione, which resuts in buttery taste as well as oily palate. Bitter finish.
3.3 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
Very drinkable, goes down easy, refreshing, with a sharp bitterness that is typical for the style, surprisingly flavorful, bitterness lingers after it goes down. Highly carbonated. Haven’t had a ton of other Pilsners, but this is very good for the money and is widely available. Good session/summer beer.
3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
Clear golden color in the glass. Bready pilsner malt aroma with noble hop accents. Clean finish. The classic standard for pilsners.
4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 17/20
Very balanced lager. It’s fresh and you can taste just the right amount of hopses floral aroma. Works always.
2.6 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20
Little too bitter for a pilsner, I believe the can I had may have been old. But it was unstatisfactory.
3.4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
Originally rated April 2004. Appearance is golden amber with a medium head that leaves hardly any lacing. Pilsner Urquell has quite a significant amount of carbonation, with bigger bubbles then most beers. First scent of skunk quickly disappeares to let a floral one settle. Taste is on the bitter side with a smooth finish. A good session beer.
2.4 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 7/20
Pours yellow with white head, aroma of grass and earthy hops, touch of bread and grain, pretty dry and bitter finish. Pretty good for a pilsener, has some good tastes.
2.7 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20
A good example of the style with surprising hoppy bitterness (to me - for the style). Not my favorite style of beer, but if it were the best choice available on a beer list, I’d get it. Frankly, the only reason I bought this 12 pack is because I got a free (and REALLY great) Pilsner Urquell pilsner stem glass with it :) WELL worth the purchase - pretty decent beer, spectacular glass.
