For some reason the label (in the USA) calls this a Czech lager, not a pilsener. No head, gold color. This is a nice, hoppy brew - those unique Saaz hops make it similar to Pilsner Urquell. Maybe there is a historical connection to Budweiser, but this is not noticable in the flavor. There is a hint of citrus in the aroma and it tingles on the tongue. The aftertaste is pleasantly hoppy. This whets the appetite for more fine examples of Czech brewing.

Pours golden and effervescent with a fully receeding off-white head. Aroma of herbal hops, cookie, and light hop resins. Mouthfeel is light to medium bodied with lively carbonation. Very nice.

this beer is more then the legend, with a great history the clean crisp taste still holds strong as one of the greats

Pours a clear yellow gold with a frothy white head that dissapates. Aroma of bread, hay. Very light sweet taste with some bitterness. Light body, but not thin. The finish quenches the thirst after working at home in the yard.

11.2 oz bottle. Pours bright golden with thin white head. Nose is lightly spicy, grassy hops, doughy malt aroma. This beer has a round malty middle, very pure graininess, with a touch of slighly floral hop oils. Finish has a bit of bitterness, that fades quickly. An excellent example of a bohemian pilsner.

12 oz bottle. Looked good after the pour with a strong, long-lasting head. But lost carbonation quickly and was difficult to finish after that. Left a bit of gritty film on my teeth.

.5L Bottle Marburg, Germany- nice crisp pilsner aroma and taste. Great to try the REAL thing; much more grainy tastey and full bodied than the AB type.
