Beer, like any living thing, evolves with time. Specifically, styles develop and change and split off into new styles and sub-styles. This has been the case with Pilsners. There are two main sub-styles of Pilsner, Bohemian (Pilsner Urquell being the...
Pros: Beautifully balanced pilsner with a real noble character Cons: Limited distribution area
It's been a while since I've done a serious study of the pilsner style, but I got the chance a few nights ago when I got together with a couple serious beer geek friends for a roundtable evening of tasting and sampling and chatting about nothing other ...
Pros: Full flavor, extra hop and a couple of fearless brewers. Cons: Too good for mainstream drinkers. Beyond NorthEast, only available in California
A few weeks ago, I was quoted as saying that the USA is not particularly known for its lagers. Lew Bryson argued that I should spend a weekend on the east coast. A couple of nights ago, I said that I would drink ales out of season but not lighter beers...
Pros: Hops as far as the eye can see Cons: If it's not really fresh, it's not nearly as good as it should be.

Pros: A wonderful beer for all occasions Cons: can't get enough of it
The title translates roughly to 'Thank you, sir. May I have another?' which is what you'll be saying after drinking a glass of this beer. It is that good. Prima may be an understatement here. But, of course, beer of this quality is to be expected ...
Pros: Great refreshing taste! Cons: You can not find that beer everywhere.
Another nice surprise! Victory Prima Pils is one of the most delicious Pilsners I have tasted in the USA. It remembers me German beers and it means that its is really a great beer! Prima pils has beautiful golden color and has fresh and refreshing taste,...
