Sort of an orangish. Grassy aroma. Crisp, bitter, watery taste. A bit stale finish. Nothing really "imperial" in here, contrary to the label.

It was a pretty good beer. I enjoy the crisp taste of of true czech pilsner. Not the best pils but far from the worst.

Honey malts, very sweet aromas, hints of grassy hops. Pours pale blonde with a dense white head that dissipates. Very sweet maltiness up front with hints of grassy hops, just before the finish there’s a mild bite with a floral grassy aftertaste.

On tap. Grassy aroma, clear pale golden pour, thin white head isn’t retained well, but still manages to leave a decent lacing. Grassy hops at the front of the taste, fading into a long, doughy malt backbone. Thin to medium bodied.

An ok lager, though less impressive than I expected from an authentic Czech brewer. Only thing in common with the real thing from 30 years ago is a long bitter finish. Of course! It’s now a Heineken and it’s been dumbed down into a world beer.

Golden /amber pour, like tree sap containing the next DNA sample for a lackluster, headboring Jurassic Park. Frothy, and heavenly fluffed head Nose is of grains, candies, and malts. Taste is pretty metalic and bitter...Not the defined bitter we are all spoiled by with such great items as the Two Hearted Ale. This is more offputting at first. Like stale bread. But after a while, it get’s better. Reminds me of tour-euro beer, which has a sort of, "...is only good when im pubbed to death," charm. Either way, is ok. I could stomach a few of these in good company, but here on the computer typing up this on ratebeer.com, is kinda lonely. :P
