50cl bottle brought back from Prague. Clear golden with a good white head. Sweet grassy aroma. Dryer grainier taste with a nice bitter finish. Nothing remarkable, and its a little light on the saaz, but its still easy to drink.

On-tap at The Rover, Gothenburg. Golden yellow color. Malty aroma and notes of white bread and some sweetness. Malty, crispy and bready taste, some hints of butter and spices. Medium bitterness. Goes down very easy.

Draught. Sweet malt nose, apple juice aromas with some light grassy notes. Clear yellow with a patchy white head that laces nicely. Strong apple flavor, balanced sweetness. Easy palate, touch of sharpness with a soft finish.

500ml bottle. Light, fizzy. Not much aroma apart from boring lager malts. Taste has something like marzipan in. Not worth going to the effort to really work out what it was. I think SABMiller killed this beer - I’m sure it was drinkable way back. At least it’s not actually unpleasant.

Typical eurobeer. Aroma isnt strong and uninteresting. Flavor may be better, need more malt and hops

Can... the worst Czech beer I’ve had so far. No flavor whatsoever. Reminded me of an American Pale Lager like Miller.

Can on A’dam-Praha flight. Yellow pilsener. Eggy aroma. Hoppy, water, grassy. Quite refreshing. Pretty good pilsener.

Pours a golden colour (darker than the avarage pilsener) and has a white head that sticks to the side of the glass. There’s a nice grassy, slightly hoppy aroma with just a hint of corianda. The taste is definitely stronger than most pilseners with a nice initial bitterness followed by a malty sweetness. I really rate this beer as one of the nicest pilseners I’ve ever had.
