50cl Bottle @ home. Clear copper golden colour, white head. Grassy, malty and a bit lemony aroma. Flavour is somewhat sweet, dry and watery. Not great.

<b>No 315</b><br /> <b>Rated: 06.02.2008</b><br /> <b>Bottle brown, 500 ml, 10P</b><br /> <b>Appearance: </b>Pours bright, nice, shiny, well filtered and perfectly clear golden body, not pale in colour though carbonation is medium to weak visually. The head is minute, weak and rapidly disappearing, totally no lacing.<br /> <b>Aroma: </b>Wet fur, reminding pee after a night, weak, very poor aroma, something between weak grainy smell mixed with grease, nothing to write about, very low hoppyness level.<br /> <b>Flavour: </b>Front is wattery with noticable bubbling impression on the tongue, a bit accidic and dominated by water, but when the palate warms can feel a kind of pronounced grainyness and easily identyfied malted barley. Almost not bitter and wattery. A kind of refreshing, quite highly carbonated Bohemian Pilsener for a hot day or to dine with. Reminding me of a Czech version of Carlsberg to be more precise. Finish duration is medium.<br /> <b>Palate: </b>A bit salty and grainy. In fact palate is the strongest accent of this beer, on the other hand apart from carbonation and maltyness, no considerable hoppy accent. Finish feel is salty and grainy.<br />

Tap &#64; Platniche, Plzen.<br /> Pours very clear golden with a nice, frothy, medium, staying, white head. Aroma is pleasantly malty with a weak grassy hops note. Okay mouthfeel. Flavour has a light metal off-flavour, rather sweet, but still rather crisp and with good hops. Okay.

Bottled in Prague. Refreshing, fine balance between hops and malt, but this does not excite anyone in a land awash with great pilseners.

Tap at the krusovice place in Plzen. Alround rating: Solid biscuity pale malt, peppery herbal hop, very drinkable stuff indeed.
