Description
Before 1842 beers were dark and cloudy, until our visionary
brewmaster created the world's first golden beer. This revolutionary
break-through took place in the city of Pilsen, in today's
Czech Republic; the town and the beer have given its name
to the new style of beer - Pilsner.
In its purest sense, the term Pilsner describes an especially
hoppy, golden beer brewed in the town of Pilsen. It has
been much copied but never equalled, by all golden colour
beers ever since. Pilsner Urquell literally translated means
"Pilsner from the original source", and its intensely
rewarding taste remains true to the original brew.

1989 this beer was too flavourful (bitter) for my young
taste buds but now this for me is a great beer.
