Not a bad pilsner. Easy to drink. Perfect for a hot day. A little on the bland side.

Pour from a 12oz green bottle. Medium yellow brew with a touch of amber. Thin whitish head that soon dissaparates. A hint of skunk in an otherwise pleasing aroma of malt and dry hops. Full bodied light malt flavor with a really well balanced but restrained hops finish. pleasant hops bitterness and dry at the end. Very pleasant, well crafted, and well balanced brew. Quite tasty.

11.2 oz. bottle. Golden yellow with a small head that disappeared almost completely. Very little in the nose aside from a touch of sweetness and grass and a some skunkiness. Sweet bready malt and nice grassy, spicy hops with some mild bitterness. Palate is medium and the finish is on the dry side.

Packaged as Czechvar. 500ml bottle poured into a pint glass. Poured a golden color with a decent 1" head that lasted a couple minutes. Hmmm, smells like beer. Good malt & hop balance in the aroma with a hint of citrus (or maybe it’s a hint of skunk). Tastes of sweet malts and bitter hops. Just the right balance as neither are dominating the flavor. Pretty average Lager feel. Medium body. Medium carbonation. Crisp finish. It’s quite drinkable but it’s not to be downed too fast. I have easily enjoyed a few of these in one evening. Only if American Budweiser would taste this good.

11.2 ounce bottle - $1.49 at Total Wine & More in Atlanta, Georgia. Appearance: Pours out a bright, clear, golden body with a medium-large, white head, though it quickly settles down to a thin, quarter inch layer. Smell: Lightly sweet-scented barley with a hint of dough gently yields to some soft, spicy Saaz notes. Taste: A light, sweet maltiness with a doughy bent to it kicks things off followed by a balancing touch of spicy, grassy Saaz hops and bitterness. Minor hint of lemon verbena. Little murmur of diacetyl butteriness in the background. Dry finish with that Saaz spiciness riding out into the aftertaste. Mouthfeel: Light-bodied. Medium carbonation. Drinkability: Worth a try. Fairly tasty, easily drinkable -- it’s a nice little beer.

Poured golden with dense white head. Yeasty, bready aroma. Dry, slight malty sweet, yeasty, bready, grainy flavor. slightly creamy on the tongue.

Bottle. Pours gold with a light white head. Aroma is off, kind of smelled like stale biscuits or bread. Flavor is nice and simple, very drinkable, biscuit and hop notes with a clean finish.
