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.

473ml can from trade with matt7215. Gold colour. White rocky head, decent retention. Aroma is grainy, a little dusty with some slight herb /grass hop. Malty, almost toasty flavour. Some grassy bitterness in the finish. Light bodied, carbonation is soft. Decent.

473mLcan, via trade with radiomgb (thanks, Jeff!). Can is marked "special 20th Anniversary release". Pours pale golden, with a moderate-sized white head. Delicate, crisp hop aroma with some sweet malt. Grassy, hay and lemon up front, which quickly give way to floral hops. long, floral hop finish. nice pils.

473ml can. pours golden with very small white head that leaves nice lacings. aromas are of sweet grass. flavours are crisp and tight with a good hops and malt balance. finish is crisp and tight, a nice way to wrap up a good pilsner.

Pours gold with a nice fine bubble white head. Some lacing. Nose of cut grass and some wheat/cereal grains. Flavour is fairly solid, but not hoppy enough to be a Bohemian. Clean and well made. Just north of average.

***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!

Pours a deep golden straw color with a moderate head. Grassy aroma overall, fainter traces of peppery hops and earth. Pretty full and slightly sweet flavor or pepper, dirt, hay, a sweeter than normal pilsner malt flavor. Good spicy and flavorful hop finish. Beer felt plenty full for the style and had lots of flavor. Not a big pilsner fan, but this had a lot of good things going for it.
