> Truth be told, though, drinking Pilsner Urquell in Prague was my ultimate beer-drinking experience.
Yes, I second that! I've been to Prague three times, and always enjoyed the beer (what else to drink with the local goulash with dumplings). And while on Prague food and drink, I had a fabulous meal there, the core of which was a pig's knee that had been smoked, and then boiled, and then roasted.
Mind you, I also enjoyed drinking the delightfully named Theakston Old Peculier while in Yorkshire in England.
