The big daddy of Pilsner

Pilsner Urquell is a Czech beer from a country that is the world's #1 beer drinking country per capita. Pilsner is brewed in a town by the name of Plzen since 1842 and the town has brewing records dating all the way back to 1295. The Czechs do know how to make their beer and Urquell is german for "original source". Pilsner Urquell was the world's first Pilsner beer and all pilsners around the world are modeled after this beer. If you are ever in the Czech republic you will need to visit the brewing complex it is simply breathtaking. Pilsner can be found in many parts of the world and the cost is above average but well worth it.

Pilsner Urquell is a light pilsner which has a refreshing taste and a mild to strong smell, the beer can be gulped down by the mouthful and the look is spectacular from the bottle to the label very eye catching.
Will i have another? For the grand daddy of all Pilsners you bet i will

O Sapporo

Sapporo the Japanese beer thats light and tastes just like a german beer. Sapporo Breweries is headquarted in Ebisu, Japan and was first brewed by a german-trained brewmaster Seibei Nakagawa in 1876. Sapporo Classic is just like a german pilsner and Sapporo comes in many different brews from light to rice lager (Japan's favorite) and many more. In Japan you can buy Sapporo from vending machines until 11pm then the machines owners are forbidden by law to the machines sell alcohol.

Sapporo that we tried was the rice lager it tastes just like a draft is light their isnt any smell to the beer just very simple. The look could use some work as the label looks more of a western cowboy idea then a japanese brand. One thing about this Sapporo brand is that you will be heading to the washroom pretty quickly after a couple. Will i have another? Yes i will but ill be sitting close to a stale.

Could it be Grolsch

Grolsch is a dutch brewery know for its pilsner beer, it has been brewing beer since 1615 in the town of Groenlo which is where the name of the beer took shape. Grolsch is famous for its unique bottle shape known as the beugel which uses a swing type cap like some of the old pop bottles we use to see years ago. Only exported bottles of Grolsch are green and bottles in the Netherlands are brown while the exported bottle's caps are plastic but the ones in the Netherlands are still made with porcelain. Grolsch comes in regular bottles now but where is the fun in that.

Grolsch comes in a great bottle which is very easy to open by hand, the taste is refreshing and the mouthfuls are plenty. Grolsch smells just like a pilsner and with over 400 years of experience we will just call them experts. Will i have another? You better believe it.
