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.

Golden yellow. Uncomplicated aroma with grass/hay. Refreshing to drink, pleasantly sour, light enough but interesting enough to drink at least a few. Much better on tap than from the bottle, or maybe it was just the atmosphere.

Can. Clear gold pour, thin white head. Aroma of wet grain spicy hops and lager yeast. Taste is bitter, quite hoppy. Palate is sparkling and enjoyable, too bad they don’t sell this in quebec anymore.

Ah, the standard. Sweet cereal nose, held down a bit by the hops, though the bitterness never stands out aromatically. Creamy pale gold, cottony white head. Everything I want in a pils. Light grassy body and a snappy crisp bitter finish. Even still, I do not find myself being ’wowed’ on a hedonistic level.

On tap in PRague, I liked this beer 5 years ago, it was the best cz beer. Now it is bitter and sweet too. Big company (SAB) has to decrease costs and the origin taste is away. Only kvasnicovy Pilsner Urquell in pub Na Parkane is the origin

Bottle. Clear golden with white head. Aromas of grass, grain, herb, flower. Flavors of grain, herbs, honeysuckle, citrus. Crisp and clean. Well balanced. Medium-thin body with smooth, slick mouth feel and soft, aggressive carbonation.

Walk like a pilsner? Talk like a pilsner? Yep, it’s a pilsner. Not much more to say, standard but decently executed.

16 oz can from the Four Firkins. Light, straw colored pour with a fluffy several fingered head. Aroma is initially somewhat sulfury but that quickly fades and leaves behind a beautiful fresh baked bread aroma. Very faint hops flavor, it’s mostly malty with a ton more of the baked bread notes. Slightly bitter bite in the finish but some nice sweetness balances that out.
