I am really not a huge fan of pilsners, some are good but most are mediocre. So I thought I would do a beer battle with 2 imported pilsners Ive never heard of. I tend to stay away from pilsners because when I think of pilsners I think of popular cheap beers from around the world such as budweiser, becks, Heineken, etc, yeah not my style. So I was interested to see where this beer face off would end up.
Pilsner Urquell is a beer from Czech Republic. This beer had a slight skunky aroma and flavor. Very light hops, slight sour, kind of watery drinkable, but very plain.
Aportel Brau Pilsner is a beer from Germany. This beer has very slight hop notes mostly malt taste but a little watery, smooth and drinkable but very little flavor.
I made this one kinda short and sweet because I really didn't care too much for either beer. I gave both a 2/5. It was a close one but I would like to say the Aportel Brau was better. Both didn't have what I was looking for but the Pilsner Urquell was a bit skunky and just reminded me too much of a typical cheap pilsner.
Next time I am going to do an IPA or summer ale, make it a bit more interesting.
