;Czech-style Pilsner: Bright golden colour, moderately bitter and distinct aroma, brewed with malt and Saaz hops. In the Czech Republic, only [[Pilsner Urquell]] is named as "pilsner". However, outside of the Czech Republic, Czech-style Pilsner is synonymous with any such lager beers (including any Czech brand) – for example Pilsner Urquell, [[Budweiser Budvar Brewery|Budweiser Budvar]], [[Gambrinus (beer)|Gambrinus]], [[Velkopopovický Kozel|Kozel]], [[Radegast (beer)|Radegast]], [[Staropramen Brewery|Staropramen]], [[Starobrno Brewery|Starobrno]] and [[Royal Brewery of Krušovice|Krušovice]].

;Mexican-style Pilsner:A type of pale lager, with a taste that is crisp, clean, and balanced. Many German and other Europeans immigrated during the period of the [[Second Mexican Empire]], with [[Maximilian I of Mexico]] (who had his own brewer) coming from the Austrian branch of the House of Habsburg-Lorraine, and they brought their style of beer making traditions with them. Except for some dark beers (Dos Equis Ambar, León Negra, Modelo Negra, and Noche Buena), which are Vienna-style beers almost all beer produced in Mexico is pilsner. [[Pacífico (beer)|Pacífico]], a Mexican pilsner is named after the Pacific Ocean. [[Modelo Especial]] is described as a Pilsner lager by the brewer, but has a slightly richer and fuller taste than [[Corona (beer)|Corona]].{{cn|date=October 2024}}

;American-style Pilsner: German immigrants brought pilsner style beers to America in the mid-19th century. American pilsners{{which|date=January 2024}} today are still closer to the German style, but a traditional grist may contain up to 25% corn and/or rice.  American pilsners have “significantly less flavor, hops, and bitterness than traditional European Pilsners,” according to the Beer Judge Certification Program.<ref>{{cite web
