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, LCBO. Medium yellow, a few bubbles, decent sized fluffy white head with only a little bit of lacing. Interesting mineral nose, faint hops. Very bready, not all that unlike the lager. Taste - honestly, served at a crappy sports pub, like Creemore lager is a lot these days, I would have a hard time distinguishing this from the lager. A little more crisp and thinner, which makes the hops a little more pronounced, but man, that is very simliiar. I’m not an expert on the style, but I don’t think all pils suck like I may have a few years ago either - I’ve had some great ones since and this doesn’t come close. But as is, it is a quenching summer drink - that this market did not need at all.

473ml can from Hogtown Harry; Nose of grain and grassy hops; tranlucent gold with a big yellow-tinged head; flavor has very light hop bitterness balanced by light sweetness; a good lawnmower or session brew but only very light bitterness!

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.

This is very similar to Grolsch I find. Which is my "usual" beer. Skunky smell, with a slight bitter and hop taste. Solid Pilsner.

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.

Golden clear with mid sized foamy head. Aroma is grassy hops and some light bready malts. Thin and slightly sweet with the euro after taste. Not bad.

(Can) Pours a clear yellow body with a small white head. Aroma of toasted malt, grass, and light herbal notes. Flavor of toasted oats and light citrus.
