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.

Traditional czech beer, very good to ordinary drinking. Great thing about that - you can drink five or more glasses and it will taste same as you drinked first one :)

50 cl can, Toronto, ON, Canada. Deep coppery golden colour, frothy head. Skunky resin aroma with some pepper. Crisp first sip, less flavor than anticipated that transitions to a mildly spicy finish.

Pours golden with foamy white head. Good carbonation. Malty aroma with some hop aroma. Taste is pilsner malt with nice, tangy bittering. Light with medium body.

This looks like a classic pub beer with a bit of head but not so much that you’ll get pissed at the bartender for handing you a pint of foam. Smells like light grains and popcorn, actually a very appetizing flavour on this one. Taste is excellent, a good mix of grains and hops, smooth syrupy mouthfeel but not too weird. A very good pilsner, one I’d seek out often.

Hopper (751) - The Alamo, Texas, USA - DEC 18, 2009
A very clear golden beer with no head. The aroma is skunky. The taste is skunky. I would like to try this fresh(as I have heard it is good) but apparently none in America is fresh. It just does not make any sense for a brewery to ship green bottles across the ocean. If they know green bottles do not protect the beer & they are shipping quite a distance then why do it. I guess they don not have anybody in these markets doing any quality control.

I need to retry this beer because the one i had was skunked. Horrible lager taste. Just bad.
