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.

Can from the LCBO. Light, clear golden colour with a moderate sized snow white head. Aroma of honeyish malt and zesty herbal hops. Medium mouthfeel, with a slightly sticky finish. Flavour starts off sweet and somewhat delicate, and finishes with grassy, herbal hop notes that get quite bold as it warms up. Not quite up to the standard of Urquell or Budvar, but still comparable to many of the other ubiquitous European lagers that crowd the LCBO shelves.

473 mL can courtesy of matt7215. Thanks! Golden color with a big creamy head that does diminish quite quickly. Aroma is bitter pils with some grain and skunk. Very sweet with a grassy, bitter finish.. Very sweet.

Can: Poured a golden yellow color pils with a nice foamy head with average retention and some minimal lacing. Aroma of medium sweet malt with some nice floral notes provided by the hops. Taste is also dominated by some notes of sweet malt with some nice hoppy floral notes. Very refreshing overall while respecting the style guideline.

Golden in colour, lingering white coloured head, some lacing, lots of visible carbonation. The aroma is sweet, grainy, some cereal, herbs and a bit of grass. The flavour is lightly bitter, toasty, grassy hops, pales malts, some bread. Moderatly bitter mouthfeel, medium body, medium/high carbonation. Finishes long, moderatly bitter, toasty. Nicely done, decent bitterness, crisp and clean.

473ml can from the LCBO in Peterborough, Ontario for $2.55.
Purchased on May 23, 2007 and opened on May 24, 2007.

473 ml can courtesy of my Secret Festivus. Pours a clear gold with a foamy white head that faded to a thin ring after several sips. Light but pleasant aroma of bread, sweet malt, and grassy hops. The flavor is sweet malt up front followed by bread and grassy hops. Mild astringency at the sides of the mouth at the finish. A decent pilsener.

473ml can from MrManning - thanks Len! Deep gold pour with a big, fluffy white head - very pretty pour. Nice toasty malt nose, grassy and floral. Biscuity flavors, fresh cut grass and a light floral tone. I liked this a lot - well done!

473ml can, bright yellow gold color, with a rocky white head, with a piney floral hop nose, with some cedary and coniferous accents, with some herbal spicy notes, and some sweet pale malts in the aroma follows through on a medium-bodied palate with a good clean saaz flowery hop character, with some leafy, grassy and cedary hop flavors, a subtle mintiness, crisp pale malt, leading towards a hoppy, dry finish.

Bottle. Nose-raw, grainy, rabbit urine. Taste-medium bitter, sweet honey, medium hops, sweet finish, corn grains, kinda raw finish. Unremarkable except for the sweetness. Slightly salty with a big malt backbone.
