PILSNER URQUELL

Pilsner Urquell (Plzeňský prazdroj en checo) es una cerveza de fermentación baja elaborada desde el año 1842 en la ciudad de Pilsen, Bohemia (República Checa). La cerveza es hoy en día un símbolo de la cerveza tipo Pilsener en diferentes países de Europa.



La cerveza Pilsner Urquell tiene una aroma floral como resultado del uso de los lúpulos Saaz, una variedad noble del lúpulo. Siendo una cerveza lager, se considera limpia (no afrutada). Además, sabe fuertemente a malta en comparación con otras cervezas Pilsner, debido al uso de una maceración de decocción. Aunque es más agria que la mayoría de las Pilsners, la amargura no persiste por el agua suave que usa la cervecería. Además contiene una graduación alcohólica de 4,4%, inferior a otras cervezas rubias.


Como su nombre indica (ambos "Urquell" en alemán y "Prazdroj" checo significan "fuente originaria"), se llega a considerar la primera cerveza pilsener del mundo, desarrollada por el cervecero bávaro Josef Groll en la cervecería Pilsen's Burgess Brewery en el año 1842. Es una de las cervezas lagers más populares. Cualquier cerveza que se denomine a sí misma como pilsner, pilsener o pils se refiere de una forma u otra a una variante de este estilo de cerveza.

PILSNER URQUELL

Plzeňský Prazdroj, known internationally by the German translation Pilsner Urquell, is a bottom-fermented beer produced since 1842 in Pilsen, Bohemia. The beer is today a prominent brand of the global brewing empire SABMiller.

Pilsner Urquell has a heavier body but slightly less alcohol than typical American-style lagers (with an almost ale-like fruitiness in the malt body) and more strongly hopped than most pilsener beers. Saaz hops, a noble hop variety, are a key element in its flavour profile, as are the use of soft water and fire-brewing.

As its name claims ("original source" is the meaning of both "Urquell" in German and of "Prazdroj" in Czech) it is the world's original pilsener, the first lager beer with a characteristic golden color and clarity. Today, nine out of ten beers produced and consumed worldwide are made according to the Pilsner style or a style directly derived from it. In the 1840's, however, the standard drink in the region was a top-fermented ale, characterized by its dark color, turbidity, and variable quality. On one occasion, Pilsen's city council ordered that 36 casks of the ale be dumped in public. They decided to invest in a new, state-of-the art brewery, the Burghers' brewery, and contracted with Josef Groll, a Bavarian brewmaster, to come up with a better beer. He prepared a new mash on October 5, 1842, and it was first served on November 11, 1842, at the feast of Saint Martin in the hearth markets.
