(swing top bottle) Deep golden colour with a medium sized foamy off-white head. Sweet bready malty aroma with caramel and hops. Moderately sweet fruity malty flavour and taste with a touch of caramel, medium bodied, smooth carbonated; light bitter, low hopped and slim finish. Drinkable Pilsener in the bohemian style.

Bottle provided by Eduard Morshuis, from Café Morshuis in Albergen. Deep golden color. Malt and a hint of apricot in the aroma. Malty flavor with apricot and a hint of cardboard. Bready. Totally different from the "normal" Grolsch pilsener. I think this beer is more a märzen as a pilsener, although it is a bit thin bodied for this kind of beer. Not bad.
