Pilsner Urquell

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.

light to medium light, very crisp with a small amount of initial bitterness, initial aftertaste is not good, half way through bottle the aftertaste is non existent and beer gets substantially better

Orange-yellow with a good head. Strong hoppy aroma of saaz on a caramel base. Nice dry, hoppy flavour of grass and straw and some biscuits to go along. I don’t know if it is diminshed over the years (even though I tried a couple of gulps at the brewery in 1987 as a 9 year old non-connaiseur), but nevertheless I find it very potent!

Pours a crisp golden color with a thin white head that fades quickly. Aroma is skunky, grass, and slightly hoppy. Taste is malty, corn, with a bit of citrus. A decent pilsner but doesn’t excite me too much.
