Pilsner Urquell

Brewed by Plzensky Prazdroj (SABMiller)
Style: Bohemian Pilsener
Plzen, Czech Republic

Serve in Flute, Footed Pilsner

Pours dark yellow with a thin white head that quickly fades to nothing. The aroma is grassy hops. The flavors are grass, light bread, and slight bitterness. Light body and mild carbonation.

pours a deep yellow under a thick white head. Nose is hops and a light malt sweetness. Initial taste is much the same with the maltiness coming on strong. I do like this. The palate is just smooth enough under the hop bite and it does finish a light hoppy bitter with a touch of malt. Very nice beer. One I’ll have to keep in the beer fridge as a regular stock item.

12oz bottle. Pours a classic Pilsner golden straw color with a white bubbly head. Smells a bit bready with a tad of grass. Taste is most definitely bready, every so slightly sweet. Not good on head retention, but a fantastic Pilsner nonetheless. Why would anyone expect anything but from the original brewers?

This beer comes with a lot of hype, but it just doesn’t have anything that makes it special. Straw yellow pour, light head with a grassy dry taste. I think this might be one of those beers you have to try extremely fresh to appreciate.

UPDATED: JUL 2, 2010 1/2 l can. Looks like a european lager but a more copperish tone to it, crystal clear. Aroma is corn, and funky. Taste is same as aroma but with flowery hops to it. Nice pilsener that gives a lot of taste per alcohol.

Pours clear and golden with a decent white head. Mild fruity and flowery hop aroma. Medium bodied and is slightly bitter and spicy with a nice fruity flavour.

Aroma is skunky, corn, malts. The appearance is yellow/orange (darker than normal pils), white head. The flavor is malt, grass, sweet malts, skunky. The finish is a noble hops bittering, lingering. The beer is medium-body, creamy mouthfeel. Ok for what it is.

Very good pilsner beer. Czech brewed. Pleasant bitterness, complex taste. Smooth body.
