Czech Republic Ambrosia

This tasting took place before our Florida trip; it was among the best I've ever done, but not surprising as the Czech Republic is one of the worlds best brewing nations.
Pilsner Urquell: Color-Clear golden Nose-Slight floral First taste-Full mouth; satisfying Observations-Wonderful; satisfying Fizziness-Rim head; limited carbonation Where Brewed? Plezen, Czech Republic (1869) Cost-Gift Alc#-4.4% Container-12 oz. bottle Aftertaste-Remember it!!! Rating-8.5
Staropramen Premium: Color-Clear golden Nose-Slight floral First taste-Quick taste; slight fade Observations-Solid flavor remains Fizziness-Rim head; slight carbonation Where Brewed? Prague, Czech Republic(1842) Cost-$.83 Alc#-5% Container-11.2 oz. bottle Aftertaste-Nice Rating-7.75
Final Thought-Close to full point differential in comparison came down to overall taste and a fine finish!!!
