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

500ml bottle, golden color, with a frothy white head, leaving laces, sweet grainy pale malt nose, with some crunchy crystal malt, like a bowl of multi-grain cereals, with a hint of vanilla in the aroma follows through on a medium-bodied palate with a crisp honeyed pale malt character, with a bubblegum fruity note, and a nice flowery hop saaz citrusy, with a leafy accent, leading towards a mild hop bitternes finish.
