Bottle from some mall in Plzen. Dark amber, bronzey colour, with a small persistant white nitro head. Weak grainy nose. Hm. Light but nice and soft grainy taste, some sweet maltiness, bit dry, hop bitterness. Ok, beer, nothing flashy. Definitely better than Kilkenny and O’Hara’s.

Bottle, bought in an Albert Supermarket, Prague.
Pours a nice, brownish amber with a medium, creamy white head. Aroma has caramel, toffe, lightly burnt toast. Low carbonation, a bit watery. Flavour has a little metal, is quite dry and softly hopped. Some sweet caramel in the back. Fair.

0.5 l bottle Doggythedog brought from Plzen, huge thanks! Well, well, an Bohemian Irish ale... It poured copper body with medium sized creamy ocher head. Weak aroma, mostly of caramel malt. Flavor as well, some caramel with subtle cofee bitterness. Body is medium thick, but fuller than I recall the style. Nice long sweetish caramel finish. Definitely better than other beers of the style I’ve tried (Kilkenny and O’Haras) and pleasantly refreshing, but far from something I would consider as a great beer.

Widgetised 20Kc can from the cornershop so dented it wouldn’t stand up. Foams like a certain kind of nitrogenated English bilge. Aroma copper penny, giving way to walnut, caramel, wood. Ridiculous bronze without visible carbonation. Cardboard, nuts and copper. Could be served up as Caffreys or John Smith’s without anyone batting an eyelid. Almost not vile. Well done.

Warm golden with a nice, creamy head. The aroma is mild and slightly sweet with notes of caramel and hints of sourness. The flavour also is mild and smooth with a light sweetness, notes of caramel and the sour note is found in the flavour too, but in an OK way.

Can. Clear amber colour with a medium dense white head. Aroma and taste of malts, hops and fruit with a dry hoppy finish and some sour notes.

Draught in St Petersburg, Russia. Dark golden beer with a strongish head. The aroma is sour and malty, and the flavour is largely sour, slightly roasted and sour. Overall a sourish lager like beer.
