    Citra Mantra is just a pale lager, not an imperial pils. But ya, it's very good.

    Urquell, is one of the definitive Pilsner's by which all others are measured.

    SN Summerfest, can't get enough of those canned 12 packs right now. Firestone Pivo Pils is always a winner, too.

    This. Especially since they have been shipped cold and completely covered the bottles with the new packaging, not to mention explicit dating. A huge step up in quality. My favorite beer for the past year or so by far. I really can't get enough of it.

    Straub Pils from St Mary's PA was just released in a summer sampler, along with Victory Hop Ticket Dry Hopped Pils in Victory's summer sampler in PA a case runs about 31 bucks for the victory and a bit less for the Straub!!!

    Radeberger, Krombacher, Half Acre Pony, Weihenstephaner, and Pivo all taste great to me.

    What is this awesomeness? Is there a Canadian version of Old Style? And do they have a long-running sponsorship of a horribly inept baseball (hockey) team?

    Ha. . I'm not sure. All I know is they drank a ton of it in the movie Fubar (Google it). It's a Molson beer

    Not exactly a go-to because it's a tad pricey and comes in big bottles, but the Reverb imperial pilsener in Boulevard's Smokestack Series was really great. As is everything in that series of course.

    1) Urban Chestnut Vaclav, Stammtisch, and Aramis
    2) Pivo

    To me, nothing else I've tried comes close without moving to a double/imperial pils.

    Didn't we just finish this discussion? Must be a faster rotation with Pilsner discussions. :wink:

    Sierra Nevada Summerfest and Trumer Pils have been regular go-tos in my fridge this year.

    Sunshine Pils is anything but bland and boring, it might actually be closer to Jack Abby style brews than a true German Pils. Sly Fox Pikeland, another great brew I would highly recommend, probably easily available in your area.
