Pilsner UrquellBeer / Since 1842
The world's first golden 'pilsner' lager that changed beer forever
We've brewed Pilsner Urquell in the same brewery using the same recipe and traditional methods, like triple decoction and parallel brewing in wooden lagering barrels for over 175 years. The thick head of dense wet foam adds smoothness and sweetness, and seals in flavour and aroma. In every sip of Pilsner Urquell you'll notice a refreshing crispness from natural carbonation, then subtle caramel tones and a clean finish with a pleasing hoppy bitterness from our Saaz hops.
Brand History
In 1842, at our brewery in Plzen, brewer Josef Groll introduced the world to the first golden 'pilsner' lager, and changed beer forever. His invention soon became the most popular style of beer on the planet. We've only ever used 100% Czech ingredients to brew our beer so we can be sure it tastes the same as it did in 1842.
