AAB 083: The Importance of Pilsner Urquell, as Explained by its Long-time Brewmaster

Pilsner Urquell is one of the most famous beers in the world and many would argue it’s the original golden lager as, after all, “Pilsner Urquell” means Original Pilsner. But what is its origin story, how is it brewed and how has Pilsner Urquell the beer evolved (if at all) from its invention in 1842 in the town of Plzen, Czech Republic? On this episode of the “All About Beer” podcast, we talk to Brewmaster Emeritus and Plzen native Václav Berka about the history of golden lager from the Czech perspective and how Pilsner Urquell conquered the world and brought Czech lager and drinking traditions to mankind.This Episode is Sponsored by:RahrBSGNeed ingredients and supplies that deliver consistent, high-quality beer?
