May 23, 2008 33cl bottle from Systembolaget Charlotteberg. It poured a golden color with a small head that vanishes quickly in the glass. It has a bitter malty aroma. The flavor is slightly bitter and tastes of malts and syrup. One of the best lagers I’ve ever tasted.

May 18, 2008 Golden colour, with the slightest hint of red. Foamy white head that dissipated quickly. Malty aroma with a hint of hops. Flavour was somewhat malty, but overall fairly bland with the suggestion of hops and some bitterness & a slight skunkyness. A decent, if unremarkable pilsner.

May 12, 2008 500ml bottle.
Medium golden yellow, clear beer with a good sized white head that fades a little quick. Aroma is sweet with some flowery hops. Flavour is a bit dry with some crisp hops and some mustardy acidity. A drinkable pils but not much more.

May 9, 2008 Pour from a green bottle. Clear golden with a fizzy big white head that settles quickly. Some malty vegetable aroma, along with the slight smell of copper. Malty slightly sweet flavor with just a touch of hop bite on the finish. A thousand times better than Bud, but still not great.

May 3, 2008 Golden-orange, decent cloudy head, bit of apple and a soft bready nose. Minerally, not much hops, a bit of lingering vegetal sweetness in the finish. Green bottle in Ontario might not be the best way to experience. Not my preferred pils.

Apr 27, 2008 0.33l, green bottle "Czechvar" version, bb 12/10/08. Clear golden with a 4-finger head that quickly settles into a somewhat lasting quarter-inch ring. Initial aroma is pure skunk; later fades to some corn, honey and grainy grass. Flavor is similar, disappointingly more skunk-dominated than the smell. Light-medium body is smooth crisp and tingly. Had the Budvar version on draft in Europe about 15 years ago and thought it was pretty good, so gave the rating a few more points than otherwise would. Can’t recommend the green bottled version though.
