Draft at the Weekend Pub, Newport News. Aroma is lemon and cow shit hay. Color is golden, but not light. No head at all. Flavor is unexpectedly hearty with corn and onion. Wonderful cilantro finish. Even though it’s a Czech product, I think it would go very well with chili or Mexican food.

Clean hop aroma, not so hoppy as American pale ales, but hoppy. Golden amber color with a decent white head. Medium mouthfeel. Instant hit of hop bitter, quickly balanced by malt. And it goes on like that. Bitterness is ever present, and the malt still hangs in at the finish. It’s not a lot of malt, but it’s not a gigantic amount of hop either. Bitter enough to keep around the mouth. Won’t replace a decent ale, but better than 90+% of the filtered golden lagers.

Tin. Tins are a good idea for Pilsener Urquell. It avoids the skunkiness from green glass Pale golden pour. Wionderful malty aroma. Lekker malty flavour with a hoppy bitterness. Carbonated enough to be refreshing after mowing the lawn. This is what warm weather beer, after work beer is all about. To those who say they don’t like this, don’t drink the green bottle, it’s likely to smell like a dead skunk. Drink it on draught, or in the tin. Also, being a pils, heavier, stronger beers are like to overpower it. drink it with other pilseners, or by itself. I wonder how this would go with roast goose.

Bottled(500ml). -Golden coloured, medium sized white head, citric hoppy nose. Fizzy. The aroma is very similar to Krušovice 10; malty, mild hoppy and grainy. Watery bitterish finish.

I really did not expect to like this one as much as I did as I have not cared for most pilsners that I have had over the years. Sampled from a 12 oz green bottle this beer poured a vibrant golden color with a medium sized white head. The aroma was a nice mix of sour and tangy malts with a hint of fruitiness and a floral hop undertone. The flavor was dry, crisp and had a nice floral hop presence. The finish was tangy and lightly bitter. Nice.

(Draught at Soldaten Svejk, Stockholm, 10 Mar 2007) Golden yellow colour with huge, firm, white head. Malty, floral nose with fresh toffee notes, slightly buttery and bready. Malty, clean taste with floral hops, toffee and a hint of malty sweetness. Clean, fresh and perfect pilsner. Very much depending on the way it is served. Go for the draught version, it should take at least 10 minutes to pour and should be served with a firm, rocky head. If so, it’s still one of the best pilseners around.

Re-rate 1/24/12: Bottle sample at a tasting at Dancing Camel. Thanks beerandbeyond. UNPASTEURIZED. Clear golden. Buttery aroma with a bit of malt and a bit of grassy hops. A slightly buttery flavor with some sweetish malt and a nice bitter grassy hops finish. Medium-bodied. Not bad. 5/3/7/3/13=3
Re-rate 6/28/08: Draught at a blind tasting at Modrý Abbé in Klatovy. Clear golden with a medium white head. Aroma is quite weak with some light maltiness. Sweetish flavor with some malt, bread notes and a quite bitter finish. Light to medium-bodied. OK. 5/3/5/3/11=2.7
On tap. Clear golden color with a medium head. Aroma is very nice hoppiness. Flavor begins with some malt and then makes room for good hop bitterness that’s getting stronger until the finish. A medium body. 7/4/7/3/15=3.6
