Purkmistr Plzeň Polotmavý 13°

Brewed by Purkmistr Pivovarský Dvůr Plzeň
Style: Vienna
Plzen - Černice, Czech Republic

The bottle looks good, the beer in the glass also, huge head. Starts hoppy and sweet. Turns then more and more moldy. Finish is earty-sourish, modest spicy. Not my favourite!

Draught at the brewpub. Weak malty aroma. Almost clear dark brown colour. Stable light brown head. The flavour is a little fruity, sweetish malty. Slightly watery finish.

On tap. Hazy amber golden with a dense off-white head. Malt, caramel, flower notes and a little yeast in the nose. Medium body, a little low in carbonation, caramel and plenty of malt. Fairly solid hopping. 270608

Tap @ Purkmistr brewpub. Cloudy deep amber with large off white head. Sweet aroma with butter, caramel and fruity notes. Sweet and somewhat hoppy flavor with caramel, fruity and malty notes.

[on tap at brewpub] Creamy 2-row malt aroma with banana notes together with very fresh hops. Clear amber with bubbly fizz that’s a thin white layer over a tan cover. Nice sweet 2-row flavour that’s not so spicy and has more hops flavour than this brewer’s pilsner-style. Good balance. Medium to light body with moderate carbonation and a slight lasting bitterness in the finish.

On tap at the brewpub: Amber coloured, mid-sized off-white creamy head; herbal yeasty nose; scratchy-bitter flavour, light bodied; bready, yeasty herbal finish. Unbalanced and a bit too yeasty.......
