0.5 l bottle. Pours pale yellow body with moderate white head. Great aroma of flowers, citrus, corn and other hops and some malt too. Taste well balanced to be neutral. I would prefer a bit bitter pilsener, but fine. Nice palate, maybe leaving too light and watery impression. Good but not the best.

Grassy, smooth, delicious. What BUD should taste like, but you know that already. A great solid pilsner.

12 oz bottle. Golden yellow with vegital aromas. Slightly skunky. Flavor was much better. Nice sweet malty start with a real hop character. Nice finish. Very refreshing. Would love to try this fresh in it’s home country.

A really good pilsner lager. light, but not "watered down" like most american macros. Slightly sweet, slightly malty, slightly hopped, slightly dry....

Poured a clear golden color with white head that dissipated rather quickly. Malty aroma that is not very dominant. Taste is malty also, with a bit of sweetness to it. This is not my preferred style and I did not find it that enticing. If I never had another I wouldnt feel like I was missing anything. Smooth, good mouthfeel.

Assaggiata dal bicchiere altrui al Pub del Duca, buona pils ceca che teme pochi rivali soprattutto oggi che la Urquell perde colpi. Nonostante non sia il mio genere, penso che ci ritornerň. Stay tuned.______________ENGLISH TEXT HERE______________Sampled from Dude’s glass at the Duca’s Pub, nice czech pils, better than Urquell imho.

This is what a light lager should taste like. Crisp and refreshing. It’s the gateway beer in my opinion, or at least it was for me. Once people have this, they should stop drinking all the american macro shit.
