Pilsner Urquell

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

Large, white, fast fading head atop a pale gold body; no lacing. Grassy aroma. Sweet, honeyish flavor. Light-to-medium bodied, well carbonated mouthfeel. Clean, dry, mildly bitter, short lived finish.

on tap a the auld dubliner smelled corny and mildy noble hoppy flavor was washed out and kinda gross and stale and corny.... sucks to be them....why can’t it be good I love great pilsners and this is no longer one of them!

Pours a blonde orangey colour with a bit of head. The aroma is sweet and earthy. Slight aftertaste. Tastes like corn.

Tall slender 12oz. green bottle poured into a pilsner. Pours a clear sun kissed yellow with moderate to heavy carbonation action and a thin white head that layers the beer. On the nose, grains, malts, and a slight citrus hop. Carbonation and a brief hop spice up front that is quickly overwhelmed by the malts in the back of the mouth. An extremely crisp beer that leaves a little hop bitterness behind in the aftertaste. Refreshingly crisp beer that hits the spot. I can see why this is the Pilsner standard.

I like to drink this one when I am working on my car. It tastes better in a can for some reason. I always thought cans make beer taste like metal, but this one has a weird skunky taste out of a bottle that is not present out of the can. Good as a beer you can knock back a few of.

The beer that gave us the name "Pilsener". This is the standard of that type. Lovely golden color, moderate to slight head that leaves thin but pretty lacing. Nose is of bread/wheat. Taste is a near perfect combination of sweet and bitter. Finish is that hoppy finish that other beers try to emulate and miss the target.

Nice grassy sweet aroma. Pours copper-gold from the 500ml. can. Nice white head with moderate lacing. Flavor is slightly sweet at first then a fair amount of bitter on the back of the tongue. A clean refreshing beer. Palate is nice and smooth not too watery. Overall a very fine pilsner. Will keep some on hand for summertime refreshment. Recommended.

Spicy floral nose. Orangey gold color, medium head. Clean mild malty sweetness balanced by delicate spicy hops. Solid carbonation, clean finish with a subtle floral note. Really one of the best Pilsners available...always a solid choice.
