DerWeg (748), Toronto, Ontario, Canada Mar 19, 2009 CAN from lcbo, served cold in tall Czech pils crystal. Clear golden bubbly pour, medium-light viscosity. Aroma -some wet hay, mostly nice and open with fresh grass, grains and hops. Opens sweetly grassy with some bitterness that carries over a lingering hop finish. Slight edge from beginning vanishes yielding supreme drinkability. Lightly sweet malt taste and good body, not heavy. Extraordinarily sweet-drinking, delicate & fresh beer, Creemore’s simple genius here truly evokes a fresh Bohemian Pilsner. I could drink only this happily for some time! kwoeltje (1313), Manchester, Missouri, USA Feb 15, 2009 (can) Light gold with generous white head. Crisp hops aroma. Flavor is light malt with a bit of crisp, slightly grassy hops finish. PaulHegedus (458), Georgetown, Ontario, Canada Feb 3, 2009 473ml can, slightly chilled poured into a tall pilsner flute. Lightly golden, transparent. This has a nice, tall head that is disappearing pretty quickly. There is a steady stream of carbonation heading to the surface. The aroma is fairly faint: distantly bready with some yeast and a bit of grass. The initial flavour is sadly metallic, likely influenced by the beer can, leading to some grass in the finish. hopdog (5525), Lansdale, Pennsylvania, USA Jan 18, 2009 473ml can acquired in trade with Sammy - thanks! Poured a medium golden-yellow color with a larger sized white head. Aromas of graininess, wet grass, and I was getting some spiciness. Tastes of the same graininess and had a lighter sweetish finish. Trev (849), Lakeville, Minnesota, USA Dec 23, 2008 pours medium gold with thin head.
Aroma is light and grainy.
Flavour is pale malt, grainy, slight grassy hop, clean finish.

Oakes (8057), gone rambling, Vietnam Sep 19, 2008 Golden colour. Mild-mannered brew with light, somewhat skunky hop character. The finish has a little dryness but the hop disappears in a hurry. A bit of a travesty, really. Beershine (2677), Hue, Vietnam Sep 18, 2008 Can. Clear, golden, fizzy off-white foam had to be imagined as we sipped this clandestinely smack dab in the middle of monkey-suit central in Toronto, in surrounded by skyscrapers. Grainy aroma, hardly hoppy. Thin, but quaffable and not too carbonated. Flavorless finish. Better than a swill for sure, but not a great brew. It’s grassy, somewhat phenolic but not horrid.
