Bottle poured a clear golden yellow with a lasting white head. Aromas of grain, a bit floral and a hint of the skunk. Palate was light and crisp. Flavors of sweet grain, and a bit of citrus with a crisp, slightly sweet finish.

I was expecting a crap horrid lager, but what i got was wholly unexpected, it was fantastic, a great lager taste and an excellent high carbonation to balance and refresh and served at an alright temperature.

Deep golden with aromas of malt and green hops. Slightly sweet initially with maybe a citrus note, but finishes strongly bitter with boxboard dryness. This is how I like my lagers.

Beer no.24 of my Slovenian beerhunt.
Poured a beautiful golden/orange colour with a smallish white head, lazy carbonation. Odd strong aroma of malt, alcohol, and if my friend was serious, and he persistently claimed he was, pancetta (yeah, right). Malty, bready taste with a light Saazy hopiness, and lemon. Hoppy aftertaste. Maybe a bit watery. Nice enough after all the crap I’ve had to wade through...

Had this from the tap in Prague, CZ. Poured pale straw yellow with active carbonation and medium white, slightly lacing head. Aroma of sweet malt, straw, light citrus. Flavor of sweet malt and light citrus. Thin palate with some carbonation and tongue coating character. I can see why the waiter insisted I try this.

Pours golden with a thin white head. Aroma is bready, grainy with grassy hops. Great condition for a green bottle, no skunking. Taste is bitter, herbal with a strong toasted maltiness. Mouthfeel is thin and carbonation is high. Dry finish. Pretty good for a pilsner, but I wish there was a more pronounced hop aroma.

One of the best Pilsners I’ve ever tasted. Amber hued, rich clean taste. Had this on tap in Prague. Still looking for it on tap in Toronto.

Poured with a surprisingly deep gold body. Lots of carbonation bubbles and a large head that faded quickly. The aroma was earthy with grass, fresh dug potatoes and some bell pepper. The taste is sweet bell pepper. Surprisingly sweet with honey. There is also some grass to complement the sweetness. The finish of grass and sharp bell pepper get to be too muc by the end of the beer. This is almost a good pils.
