Brewery Tour of Pilsner Urquell
In Prague, Czech.
The history of the legendary Pilsner Urquell lager began in 1842 in the Pilsen brewery and since that time its fame has spread throughout the world, making it the inspiration for more than two-thirds of the beer produced in the world today, which are still called pils, pilsner, and pilsener.

As the name suggests, ("Urquell" in German or "Prazdroj" in Czech both mean "original source") is the original pilsner and first pale lager beer. It is characterised by its golden colour and clarity and was
immensely successful – nine out of ten beers produced and consumed in
the world are derived from the original Pilsen beer

ReplyDeletetrue, that's why I like to follow tour..we get to visit factories and brewery too.
Deletei always like to see how those things are produced in a factory.. it's quite interesting to see the raw materials being converted to consumables right??
ReplyDeleteyes, I always love that..I have been to various factories since I am very curious about the function.
Deleteyour mum is quite open to new things huh?? because i found a lot of elderly people cannot accept western things and food.. they always only eat the chinese food they are used to..
ReplyDeletemy mum has to follow my style :)
Deleteso you all have free beer there in the factory huh?? did you also buy some?? cos i think it should be cheaper buying direct from the factory right?? :)
ReplyDeleteoh, just drank a cup but I don't like to buy beer..
