330mL bottle. Pours clear pale gold with a thin persistent head. Aroma of citrus and grass but also slightly light struck. Fairly crisp flavour, slight malty sweetness and decent bitterness. Light bodied, average carbonation with a lingering bitter finish.
3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 13/20 KyotoLefty (3480) - Kyoto, JAPAN - MAR 19, 2010
From the bottle. I was trying to wait until I got it from the tank again in CZ, but, well, I had one. Deep, glowing, crystal clear golden color with a tall head. Malty, bread / biscuit aroma with grassy and slightly skunky hops. Ruch, fruity malt, bready as hell. Nice hop balance, though really not fragrant. Rich and thick yet not too heavy. Such a distinctive flavor. Still great, though it makes me long for the unpasteurized version again.

Bottle at home. Pours a clear golden color with a small, creamy white head. Aroma of grains and slightly skunked. Nice full bitter pilsener flavor with a nice amount of hops. Decent carbonation and a nice bitter finish. Slightly skunked though, shall have been the green bottle. Should try this in a can when I have the opportunity.
4 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 17/20 MmmcKay (841) - Brentwood, Tennessee, USA - MAR 17, 2010
While I have had a Pilsner Urquel in the past, it had been so long that it was a distant memory. Drinking the one I had last night was basically like having the beer for the first time. I have to say that this is easily one of the best Pils that I have ever had in my life. For a low octane pilsner, it just about impossible to beat. The beer pours clean with a typical light head. It looks just like a pils should. The aroma was spicy and vegetal. Weird but cool. Nice hop presence. Nose is potent. The beer tastes great. I hate most Pils because they remind my of shitty American beer. This is not one of those at all. The original may still be the best. This stuff is fantastic.
3.2 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20 inbirraveritas (712) - Budapest, HUNGARY - MAR 17, 2010
0.5 l-es palack.
Színe mélyarany egy kicsi és gyorsan elillanó fehér színű habkoronácskával, szénsavassága enyhe.
Illata élesztős, a háttérben nyomokban felfedezhető némi gabona és a virágos komló illata is.
Csipősen indul, utána előbukkan édeskés és kovászos, kenyeres íze. Aromája gabonás, virágos és persze érezhető, az a bizonyos alsóerjesztésű élesztő is.
Finisében a fűszeres komló íze dominál, mely a végén kiszárítja az ember szájpadlását.
Teste közepes/könnyed.
Nem vagyok igazán oda az erős(ebb)en komlózott (alsőerjesztésű) főzetekért, de ez számomra bizony egy kellemes aromákban gazdag és persze frissítő világos nedű, a "pils ősatyjától".
