Pilsner Urquell 4,4% 0,5 l tin

Pilsner Urquell is an iconic Czech light lager that, in 1842, gave rise to an entirely new style of beer, known today throughout the world as pilsner. It is characterized by a pronounced hoppy bitterness, a fuller malt base, and a typical golden color.

The beer is made from traditional ingredients: water, barley malt, hops, and brewer’s yeast. An important part of its character is the soft Pilsen water and Czech hops, which, together with the malty base, create a balanced combination of freshness, bitterness, and subtle sweetness.

The convenient 0.5-liter can is perfect for serving well-chilled at home, on the go, or while hanging out with friends.
