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.

Same as Gary(77), i think I prefer German efforts. Not knocking this one though it is reasonably good. Plenty flowery hops in there and crisp palate

Pours with a dark golden hue with no head whatsoever. Hue is pretty clear - some carbonation bubbles but not much. Aroma is of fruits, hops, and yeast. There is a slight barley note, that comes in pretty strong. Flavor has a bready beginning, and a slightly hoppy ending - Saaz Hops in particular - really good flavored beer. Medium mouth feel with light carbonation.

I think I prefer North German Pilseners ,to Czech ones. Ive tried only a handful of each, but the krauts versions have been more to my liking. Get this beer draught or canned..the green bottles are skunky and devoied of anything aromatic,and that sucks . Nice Saaz hops..biscuty malt -flowers and Horticultureism in there. Its alright .

Hmmm. Maybe not all beer in green bottles is bad. This one had some very nice hoppy notes to it, along with some nice citrus notes. I was pleased with what I found in this beer.

I was pleasantly surprised by this pilsner. The bottle is completely unassuming, with mediocre design and green glass. I was expecting an average European beer with a funk to it. Poured from a 12 oz. bottle into a pilsner glass. Yellow body, with a slight head. Smells slightly skunky, with grass and malt aromas. The taste, however, is anything but skunky. Extremly smooth, refreshing beer. Light malt taste with a hint of hops bitterness at the end that warms the mouth rather than biting. Fantastic pilsner. I will be buying in the future.

warm yellow body under an average head. Smell of string grasses and flowers. Wonderful soft malt taste, dry and hoopy but not sharp. Slightly bitter finish. Beautiful. Palate watery and only a touch fizzy. Nice to go with an original for my 100th rating.
