Characteristics of Pilsner Urquell

Located in the center of Europe, the Czech Republic is a country with beautiful cityscapes and a rich beer culture. Among them, Pilsner Urquell is known as the world's first golden-colored lager beer. It was born in the city of Pilsen in the Czech Republic in 1842, and is still loved by many beer lovers today. This beer is positioned as the king of the "pilsner" style of beer not only in the Czech Republic, but throughout Europe.

Pilsner Urquell - the original pilsner beer of the world.

Before the birth of Pilsner Urquell, beer was mainly cloudy dark ale. However, Pilsner Urquell adopted new methods and techniques to create a clear, beautiful golden-colored lager. This revolutionary style quickly spread throughout Europe, and many breweries began to imitate it. That's why Pilsner Urquell is an indispensable part of the history of pilsner beer.

Why is Pilsner Urquell so good?

There are three reasons why Pilsner Urquell tastes so good.

Reason 1 A taste familiar to Japanese people

Most of the beer sold in Japan is the same "pilsner style" as Pilsner Urquell, so it has a familiar taste to many people. The natural sweetness of the barley and the aroma of hops with a moderately suppressed bitterness are a perfect match for Japanese tastes.

Reason 2 Commitment to traditional manufacturing methods

Pilsner Urquell has been producing beer using traditional methods since its founding. In particular, the fermentation process using open fermentation tanks is what produces this complex and deep flavor.

Reason 3 Carefully Selected Ingredients

The soft water from the Pilsen region of the Czech Republic and the locally grown Saaz hops characterize the taste of Pilsner Urquell, providing a delicate flavor.

My encounter with Pilsner Urquell

I first encountered Pilsner Urquell 10 years ago when I was on honeymoon in Prague, Czech Republic. I was walking around the historic streets and happened to stop by a local pub. I was recommended Pilsner Urquell and had it.

The beer I had in the Czech Republic, a country where it's cheaper than water, was exceptional!

I still remember the fine foam, the fragrant hops, and the smooth taste. It was the moment I was truly moved and thought, "This is what authentic beer tastes like!"

There are many other attractive beers in the Czech Republic, including Pilsner Urquell. I have come to love the Czech Republic, where you can drink delicious beer at a reasonable price.
Since then, I have visited the bar several times and enjoyed the original draft Pilsner beer.

How to enjoy Pilsner Urquell in Japan

Pilsner Urquell can be easily enjoyed in Japan. Bottles and cans are available at import food stores and some supermarkets. It is also sold at many online shops.

＼ First of all, try one bottle! ／

The trick to creating a creamy foam is to pour vigorously at first, then slowly adjust the foam. This alone will bring out the flavor. Also, if you prepare food that goes well with beer, you can enjoy a more authentic beer experience.

1. Japanese snacks
   In Japan, fried foods such as edamame, karaage, and tempura are recommended as easy-to-prepare foods. The refreshing bitterness of Pilsner Urquell neutralizes the greasiness and further stimulates your appetite.
   
   
2. Cheese and nuts
   Rich cheeses and roasted nuts also go well with Pilsner Urquell. Cheddar and Gouda cheeses, which are not too strong, do not overpower the flavor of the beer.
   
   
3. Pizza and pasta
   Tomato-based pizza and creamy pasta also make great pairings, as they balance well with the bitterness of Pilsner Urquell's hops.

If you're enjoying beer at home, why not prepare some of these dishes and snacks to experience the authentic Czech beer atmosphere? They will bring out the flavor of the beer itself and create a special time.

Pilsner Urquell tastes even better in its own mug

To get the most out of Pilsner Urquell, we recommend using a special mug. Pilsner Urquell is so famous in the Czech Republic and neighboring countries that it is synonymous with this mug.

The thickness of this mug allows you to enjoy your beer cold for a long time. By mastering the correct pouring technique, you can create the creamy foam that is characteristic of Pilsner Urquell.

Although the mugs are sold separately at online stores, you can purchase a set that includes beer and a special glass to enjoy the authentic taste at home. It's also perfect for spending special time with friends and family.
