Do you folks know how many rabbits there are on the label? They seem to be in decline these days.

Hi there I moved to Alberta from Ontario when I was fresh out of high school,to work on the oil rigs,and now that I moved back to Ontario I like to reflect on the good times with my friends and family.I was just telling some people about pils brewed in lethbridge and no one here had ever heard of it.I went on a mission to find it and discovered none of the beer stores around here have heard of it and obviously don’t carry it.I think this is a crying shame as this pilsner was my absolute favorite drink the entire time I was in alberta and b.c. as it was enjoyed warm,luke ,cold and ice cold,it was always a tasty lil pil…..

When exactly did the brewery close? I remember a Lethbridge beer (or at least the bottlecaps) in the 70’s when I visited from Texas.

I’d have to correct you Jonny on the date of the origin of Pilsner Urquell beer, if I knew exactly when it was, but it certainly wasn’t in the nineteenth century, it would have been more like the 15th or 16th.

Great post!
I grew up in Lethbridge and my dad was an engineer at the old Pilsner plant until it shut down. He moved to Edmonton and worked at Molson’s for another 20 years.
To say I spent my childhood growing up in beer houses is an understatement. Spending hours upon hours in the hot rooms where the kettles brewed our golden nectar… well, that is a memory I hold dear.

Yes! I was talking to Rod about this article and he made me load the video on my iPhone straight away!

Is it a coincidence that I’m drinking a Pilsner right now? Probably not…I’m always drinking.
