Pilsner Urquell
One of my all time favorite brews & the original pils- Pilsner Urquell!
Pours a fantastic amber slightly ruby hue colour with a creamy white head.
On the the nose the sweetness and roast from the malts really comes through. Nice hop tang in there too!
As it goes down the first sip can be a little bitter and once ya mouth has automatically builds up a instant tolerance to the bitterness the second sip goes down smooth as! (The following sips and pints seem to go down as smooth as too!)
Nice bitterness from the Czech saaz and the perfectly roasted malts and soft water bring this masterpiece of the style together….the way a PROPER Pils was meant to be!
Food match would have to be a slow cooked pork/beef with a spicy coleslaw or a good ‘ol hot dog with heaps of hot mustard!
This beer really shines in a goblet style glass…straight from the bottle really doesn’t cut it!
Pilsner Urquell is a regular in my fridge and big props to the brewery changing back to brown bottles from green! A big plus especially when this tasty brew is exported far & wide from its homeland in the Czech Republic!
I can’t wait for the day that I get to knock on the brewery door of Pilsner Urquell and drink the unpasteurized version straight off the wooden barrel!
