Throughout the ages, Pilsner Urquell has attracted
the acclaim of world-renowned original thinkers.
In fact it was created in Pilsen, which was then the
heart of Bohemia, from which the term "Bohemian",
initially used to describe free-thinkers, originated.
In Paris, Spain and America in the twenties it was
enjoyed by Scott and Zelda Fitzgerald, Ernest
Hemingway, Marlene Dietrich ... all self-professed
admirers of the best beer in the world, and
in the 1930's Pilsner Urquell came to the attention
of one Al Capone - who promptly defied prohibition
and stocked his favourite speakeasies with
thousands of cases to ensure he always had a
large supply at hand.
