Beer In Ads #262: Pilsner Urquell For The Holidays

December 10, 2010 By Jay Brooks

Friday’s holiday ads are for Pilsner Urquell, in honor of it being National Lager Day. And one of the best is without a doubt is the original pilsner, Pilsner Urquell. I don’t believe the ads are more than a few years old, but I love the faux stained glass look of them. Who wouldn’t love those in their beer room, with the light streaming through into your own private church of beer?

The first two words mean “Inspiring taste” in Czech, but I don’t know what the third word means. Anybody know?

I think the iconic bottle ad is my favorite, but they’re all pretty cool.

    Vanoc I believe means “Christmas” in Czech.

    The Free Translation website translates “Vanoc” as “Miracle.” Cheers!
