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.

UPDATED: MAY 2, 2007 Great amount of hops. Extremly nice. Very pronounced bitterness. Probably one of the very best Pilseners around. Easy drinkable.

I tried this from a 22 oz bottle on the train home, alte at night, suffering from a cold. That said, it made a really good impression. Nice little head formed in the bottle, and a really sharp Saaz hop bite I would never have expected in a pale lager. Really helped ease my suffering; and bless the 7-11 on Michigan Ave. for having a variety of beer to take home besides the usual 40's of malt liquor and Foster's oil cans!

LinusStick (2386) - Moon Twp, suburb of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA - JUN 7, 2007
This is my least favorite style of beer and this one brings out all that I don’t like.Aroma of dirt and corn. Pour was a light gold with a 1 finger white head. Crisp highly carbonated taste of corn and skunk.

Draft at the Weekend Pub, Newport News. Aroma is lemon and cow shit hay. Color is golden, but not light. No head at all. Flavor is unexpectedly hearty with corn and onion. Wonderful cilantro finish. Even though it’s a Czech product, I think it would go very well with chili or Mexican food.

Tap. One of the finest pilsners available. Clean, sharp, dry flavor.

Beerman6686 (2384) - Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA - APR 5, 2006
Got a giant 710 ml can of this in windsor and was anxious to try it but slightly dissapointed. Not a bad flavor but too much of a skunk flavor/smell to be enjoyable for me

Meilby (2372) - Kristiansand, NORWAY - NOV 18, 2010
Bottle. Clear golden with a white head. Aroma has notes of hops, grains and some sweetness from malts. Flavour has notes of bread, hops and ends in a sweet bitterness.

theisti (2371) - Leawood, Kansas, USA - OCT 26, 2006
Bottle. Poured golden, nice white head. Solid flavor, nice body. Pils are supposed to be refreshing, and this one certainly is.
