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.

Parket (521) - Bruges, BELGIUM - OCT 16, 2009
bottle, soft yellow/golden colour. Smell: very hoppy, like the taste and the aftertaste. It’s a bit overpowering beer. Not the ’ a beer please’ you would expect when you order a pils. Special!

UPDATED: FEB 19, 2011 On tap in Prague - pours a golden yellow. Flavour is crisp, grass, hops and well-balanced. Decent.

zonmei (23) - Bamberg, GERMANY - OCT 12, 2009
500ml GREEN bottle. Pours bright amber. Immediate skunk aroma, maybe hoppy but I think the green bottle skunked it. Very carbonated with a slightly acidic aftertaste. I’m looking forward to getting this from a tap in Pilzen soon!

nittanytide (125) - Pennsylvania, USA - OCT 10, 2009
From the tap. Poured a golden yellow with a small bubbly head. Taste is dominated by crisp, grassy hops, yet nicely balanced. Tasty and well worth drinking more than one.

Hermod (1480) - Vantaa, FINLAND - OCT 7, 2009
50cl can. Very nice hops aroma, dry flavour. Bitter finish. Excellent pilsner, as it should taste.

JamesTrab (16) - Matelica, ITALY - OCT 6, 2009
UPDATED: NOV 15, 2009 L’ho conosciuta a Praga, nella mia vacanza estiva.. Senza di questa birra quella vacanza forse avrebbe fatto un tantino piů schifo. Una birra leggera, amabile, al naso piuttosto dolce, in bocca invece un po’ piů amara. Schiuma abbondante, colore giallo paglierino. Per come l’ho vissuta a Praga, ha rappresentato proprio lo stereotipo di birra, non troppo alcolica, economica, da bere in quantitŕ industriali. La definirei una birra gioiosa. L’effetto che mi ha fatto invece consumarla in Italia nella bottiglia importata aveva purtroppo perso tutta la sua magia.. (e anche qualcosa nel sapore).

DKthe13 (54) - NETHERLANDS - OCT 6, 2009
Drank it for the first time on keg in the Czech Rep. The aroma consits out of nice Saaz hops. The taste is mainly about the hop and bitterness. As is wanted in a pilsner.

Barreras (368) - Diamond Bar, California, USA - OCT 6, 2009
Pours a golden yellow. Aroma of corn throughout. A bit skunky with a dry and hoppy bitterness in taste. Nothing special just a normal Czech pilsner.
