Pilsner Urquell Nefiltrovaný (unfiltered) is available regularly only at Na Parkanu in Plzen and, every October at selected pubs under the Volba Sladků brand. A limited number of kegs were exported to Sweden and Finland for special events. Though the beer is not kvasnicovy (yeast beer), as there is no wort or young yeast added, it is unfiltered.
Note that this is not the same as the more widespread tankovná (tank beer) or the unpasteurized (filtered) version, both of which are found throughout Prague and Czech Republic. all of these other versions should be reviewed under the regular Pilsner Urquell entry. Additionally, the 170 year Anniversary flip-top bottles should be reviewed under the regular Pilsner Urquell entry.
The version of the beer available in the brewery cellars should be rated in its own entry.

On tap (at the pub U Parkanu 60 days old) Hazy, golden coloured, medium-sized firm head; fresh bitter-sweet nose of Bohemian hops (Saazer Roter Mittelfrüh) and buttery malt; creamy mouthfeel, not so malty as the filtered version, but a nearly solid bitter-sweet flavour. Soft, but distinctive bitter-aromatic finish. Extremely well quaffable, well balanced..........Worth a journey, českemú pivu zdar !!!!!!!!!!

I tried this as a commercial version at the pub close to the brewery museum in Pilzen. I also tried it during the tour in the basement of the brewery, straight from a barrel. Tried it at two different occasions, both at Na Parkanu and in the tunnels at both visits. Pretty special and a nice extra touch to this very special and great beer. It’s even better when tasted unfiltered. Nice cloudy yellow color, big fluffy frothy white head. Herbal hoppy fresh scent. Also hoppy herbal taste. Medium high bitterness. Amazing full fresh mouthfeel. Summery aftertaste. 8/5/9/5/19=4.6 Rerate At Na Parkanu on June 26, 2008: 8/4/8/4/16=4.0 At the cellars having about 2 liters :) - Same rating as before: 8/5/9/5/19, just an amazingly nice pils. From Na Parkanu: Fruity hoppy taste. Fresh fruity hoppy scent. Smooth mouthfeel. Medium bitterness. Shady orange color. Creamy white head. Rerate Yet again I took the tour of the Pilsner Urquell BRewery, yet again I longed for that pilsner from the cellar, yet again I left with a smile on my face, wanting more! On August 1, 2017. Hazy golden color, large lasting off-white head with lacing. Sweet, malty, herbal scent. Herbal, crips, malty, bitter taste. Herbal, bitter aftertaste. Smooth mouthfeel, medium bitterness. I can drink this all the time and be happy, fantastic it is! The full score goes to the beer from the cellar only, the top notch one. Others are awesome too, but the one you get after the tour is simply to die for. 10/5/10/5/20=5.0 Had this plenty of more times, both during the brewery tour, but also the version selling as unfiltered in some bars on tap these days. Just a great beer that I can keep drinking over and over. Since the from the cellar on the tour have become a separate rating, adjusting my figures of this rating into: At Na Parkanu on June 26, 2008: 8/4/8/4/16=4.0
