Bottle. [Courtesy of yespr, thanks buddy] Large creamy off-white head that mostly lasted. Good display of lacework. Clear golden colour. Aroma of mild grass and cardboard, caramel, grain. Light bodied with a soft carbonation and light dry texture. Light bitter and sweet flavour. Light dry and bitter grassy finish.

Bottle. Poured clear yellow with a small head. Some hops and malt in aroma and flavour but its pretty grainy and boring overall. Thin as well.

Shared this one w/ SkyCop32. Picked up at Toom Getränke in Kaiserslautern. Pours a crisp light golden yellow color with almost no head. Aromas of minor hops, malts, and grains. Flavor is a nice crisp hoppy/grain taste with a nice clean finish

500ml bottle. Bloke on the bottle seems pretty happy drinking it down, hope I’m the same. Clean golden body, foamy white head. Grainy malt aroma, quite sweet, bit of floral hop with a rusty bread component for good measure. Moderate carbonation, slight creamy texture, sweet syrupiness in there going hand-in-hand with a reasonable bitterness. Biscuity malt dominates the body, quite sweet again, only a touch of grass floral hops in there. Finishes with a slightly metallic dryness and breadiness. A reasonably clean pils, overall character is probably a bit sweeter than others.

Bottle kindly provided by hostess in Zeitz Germany. Full malt body and good hop persistence on finish. Dense hop bouquet.

Blah. Not a bad beer I guess but completely unremarkable. Appearance as the genre - clear light copper and no head. Some simple sweetness on the nose with a stale element. Descriptor says hop aroma but more malt driven to me. More of the stale character to taste but I wouldn’t really call it offensive. Very mild hop impact. Nice lightly carbonated finish. Once again I’m left convinced that Czech beers are better on tap.
