Jun 26, 2006 Smooth, drinkable, flavorful at a great price! The perfect beer taste! It has a bad reputation in the Czech Republic since it is popular with the homeless but it is really excellent. A hidden gem. The company is trying to improve the beer’s image. About two years ago they changed the logo and graphics to make it look classier. It is now made by Staropramen at the Smichov brewery as they closed down the Branik brewery this year.

May 28, 2006 Updated: Jul 2, 2008Draught at Branicky Sklipek in Prague.
Served in a small 30 cl or a big 50 cl glass (by chice).
Light yellow color, small white head. Not much scent, but might be due to the extremely smokey environment. Big body, clear diacetyl/butterscotch flavor. Medium bitterness. Very refreshing, but not a lot of taste other than the butterscotch.

Apr 19, 2005 GOlden standard-lager color, but the aroma is much greater. It is not as dry as most czech beers, has a well balanced sweetness with lots of malt in the palate. A nice beer that I could drink a lot of.

May 31, 2009 (tap at small branikplace, Praha) A very clear, lightly golden beer with thick, white foam. It has a general lager-aroma with some diacetyle. The palate is good but the taste is a bit light. It has alnost no bitterness and is actually a bit salty.

Sep 20, 2003 The points that this brew gets comes more from the atmosphere in which I enjoyed it: very local house in Prague, dropped the equivelant of a couple nickels on the counter and got my half liter. . . bubbly head on a clear light golden body. Light saaz type hop aroma with a good deal of floral aromatics. Loads of straw and grass flavours - the lingering hops makes this one drinkable for me. . .
