Working my way through the lagers brought back from my shopping trip to Tesco’s in Plzen, and some of them are not very good. This is thin, vanilla, buttery some boiled notes. Maybe some sharpness on the close fighting its way through, but mostly just poor. TBone (6790), Pori, Finland

Golden color, small white head, some lace. Some Saaz hops in the nose otherwise quite neutral: light buttery and papery notes. Quite watery (well, 3.8 % = no suprises). Lacks most flavors. Light hoppyness with weak buttery notes. Watered down bulk class pils. thewolf (5764), Kolding, Denmark

Pirs clear golden with a medium, frothy/creamy white head. Aroma has some grass, citrus and sweet brewing cereal. Medium carbonation, okay mouthfeel. Flavour is mild, quite sweet with limited bitterness (citric and grassy). Okay as a thirst quencher.

| 2.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 3/10 | 3/5 | 3/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | May 14, 2008 500ml bottle - about 20p from Prague Tesco. Svetle means pale and Vycepni means standard or low strength - it applies to beers under 5% abv. This is a typical bottled Czech lager - there’s a damp straw malt flavour and a smudgy hop finish. It tastes a little dirty, though in a positive way. Carbonation is forced and crisp. This is a very drinkable and refreshing lager to have for breakfast. It pulls well at only 3.8%.

Light bodied but quite full of flavour. Malty, pleasantly hoppy with a tiny touch of caramel and roasted malt. Dry finish. I wouldn’t call it cesky pivni ideal but it really is good. pivnizub (5028), Bochum, Porúří, Germany

A light, but decent Bohemian Pilsener with an odd name (pardál = panther)...........
