Handwritten notes: There is a clear copyright infringement here. If I was Steve Urquell or whoever owns Pilsner Urquell I would sue these guys. With that being said, and in light of the green glass of the bottle, the taste of this beer is exactly what I expected. It is a German-style lager with really no life of its own. You could knock me over with a feather. What the hell does that phrase even mean? Moreover, what the hell does any of this have to do with this beer you ask? Pheasants have feathers and there is some ridiculous segue in there somewhere.
