Commercial Description:
The first pilsner was brewed in 1842, over a hundred years ago, in the Bohemian town of Plzen. Revolutionary at the time, it was a fired-brewed beer characterized by a rich golden colour, sweet malty flavour and an abundance of hops. Our brewmaster visited the Czech Republic to study their methods and in honour of our 20th anniversary we are proud to share his interpretation of this classic beer style. Similar to original pilsners, our direct fire brewing process and combination of specialty malts yield a beer with a deep golden colour and delicious malt flavours. Natural spring water creates a soft pure background on which Czech hops impart a fresh fragrant aroma and bitter finish.

tallcans bought in brampton ontario. nothing wrong with this beer; although i don’t find it to have a strong aroma at all nor a predominant taste. can’t believe someone under me wrote it to be a "dark golden" color, mine is quite light and golden. head that disappears fast but well carbonated and definitely refreshing. would buy again for a summer day.

***review from Sept 24, 2007***

This stuff is great! Poured out a large thick, white cap on top of a crystal clear dark gold brew. Lots of ropy lacing. Plenty of biscuit malts and some softly spiced hops but every deep smell I take I smell armpit sweat....I checked my own armpits and it’s not me! Still worth a 7 though. Great flavour blended well with biscuit malts and some spicy and floral hops. Slightly sweet. Very well put together in the flavour department. Mouthfeel is nice with lots of soft carbonation, comes across nearing medium bodied with a very pleasant bitterness. This is no crappy Canadain pilsner. Good stuff. Thanks Faron for the brew, for letting me reassure him that he is my bitch at pool. Also thanks to Faron for the following: hitting me in the eye with a pepper encrusted gravy bomb, yelling at and abusing our bitch waitress, chasing his keys into traffic, not tearing his pants in half climbing a fence, not getting lost in the ravine near my house, puking all over the spare bedroom while he slept, attempting to wash the pillows and blankets without shaking them off and then missing his wifes best freinds wedding ceremony at the church the next day which caused me to instantly laugh in her face ( I couldn’t help it). Good thing you flew all the way from Ottawa for that one, eh? LOL! Party on, buddy!

CAN from lcbo, served cold in tall Czech pils crystal. Clear golden bubbly pour, medium-light viscosity. Aroma -some wet hay, mostly nice and open with fresh grass, grains and hops. Opens sweetly grassy with some bitterness that carries over a lingering hop finish. Slight edge from beginning vanishes yielding supreme drinkability. Lightly sweet malt taste and good body, not heavy. Extraordinarily sweet-drinking, delicate & fresh beer, Creemore’s simple genius here truly evokes a fresh Bohemian Pilsner. I could drink only this happily for some time!

(can) Light gold with generous white head. Crisp hops aroma. Flavor is light malt with a bit of crisp, slightly grassy hops finish.

473ml can, slightly chilled poured into a tall pilsner flute. Lightly golden, transparent. This has a nice, tall head that is disappearing pretty quickly. There is a steady stream of carbonation heading to the surface. The aroma is fairly faint: distantly bready with some yeast and a bit of grass. The initial flavour is sadly metallic, likely influenced by the beer can, leading to some grass in the finish.

473ml can acquired in trade with Sammy - thanks! Poured a medium golden-yellow color with a larger sized white head. Aromas of graininess, wet grass, and I was getting some spiciness. Tastes of the same graininess and had a lighter sweetish finish.
