Pilsner Urquell is the world’s first and original Pilsner. It has a pure and distinctive taste that is known for a fine balance of sweetness and bitterness. Untouched since it was first created in the enchanting central European city of Pilsen, Pilsner Urquell is celebrated for its originality, authenticity and uncompromised quality.
Pilsner Urquell was first brewed in the city of Pilsen, Czech Republic, in 1842. Its brilliant clarity, golden color and light body made it an instant success in a world that was accustomed only to dark, heavy, cloudy beers. Even the name Pilsner Urquell, which literally means "original source of pilsner beer," acclaims its role in defining a category of beer.
