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.

Sampled this in the French Quarter. Just happy to find something other than shit-ass. Paid 11 for the pint (geez). But a historic beer for a historic place. as it warmed it tasted like sam adams lager.... ehh whatever wont buy this again, but wasnt terrible.

Nice Czech beer One of the best from the Czech, or at least one of the best that is exported to Sweden. Very crispy body, with some nice bitterness and very light tones of butterscotch. Perfect for a warm summer day

It truly is the greatest pilsner. If I were only a fan this would be bliss. No one can argue the purity and design of this ageless beer.

Bottle pour. Pours light yellow that sparkles with a large rocky head that fully diminishes. Light malt aroma mixed with moderate hops and citrus. Light malt sweetness up front with light-moderate bitterness out back. Light, dry body with lively carbonation. I was expecting more from the worlds leading pilsner, but at least I wasn’t disappointed.

This is a good beer if you’re in a place that does not generally serve micros or Belgians. It is one of the only solid Pilsners for the style. It pours a golden color and is even in the flavor with a nice hop bit at the end.
