Buy Pilsner Urquell - 1878 Pilsener - Cape Horn Pilsen

Pilsner Urquell

This legendary pale Pilsen lager has become a legend amongst beers, and has created a completely new category of beer (Pils, Pilsner). Neither the recipe nor the brewing process has changed since it was first made in 1842. The skill of the Pilsen brewers has meant that its quality and flavour have stayed the same, too. This is proven by regular laboratory comparisons, the oldest of which dates back to 1897.

The secret behind the taste of this legendary bottom-fermented lager with an alcohol content of 4.4% lies mainly in its premium quality ingredients along with the preservation of the original production process. The beer acquires its characteristic aroma of malt grains and a balanced caramel taste through triple mashing, while the soft Pilsen water lends it a unique delicate taste and the Žatec hops its velvety bitterness. The malt itself gives the beer a golden color.

Cerveza de color dorado intenso, que forma una corona de espuma blanca y cremosa. Con un pronunciado aroma y sabor a malta, y un ligero bouquet floral aportado por el lúpulo. De final ligeramente amargo.

Se complementa bien con preparaciones a base de pescados de mar, carnes blancas como pollo y cerdo, productos ahumados en general, embutidos, frituras en general y especialmente las frituras de mar. También con las preparaciones picantes típicas de la cocina mexicana o thai, con los platos muy especiados, con preparaciones agridulces o con aquellos en que hay una fuerte presencia de vinagre como es el caso del chucrut alemán.
