Dense creamy but thin head. Smells of yeast. Body like a draught bitter, round and smooth, no excessive sugar. Feels like velvet in your throat

light body, yeasty head. Toatsty, Lightly malted, pale walts, wheat, caramel. Good bitterness at finish. A medium mouthfeel. Masterful brewing. Well hopped, thanks for bringing back Georgina.

Draught at "Staropramen Naverandach" in Prague.
Beautiful cascading effect after poured, needed to sit for a few minutes and wait for it to settle.
Clear deep golden color with a thick creamy lasting light beige head with obvious nitrogen effect. Very low scent, though it may be due to the smokey Prague restaurant. Fresh hoppy taste and a Velvet mouthfeel. Rather medium bitterness.

Nice looking falling out, building up llok. Clear amber color, big fluffy lasting tan head. Malty, sweet, caramel taste. Smooth mouthfeel, medium bitterness. Sweet malty scent.

One of my favorite Czech beers. Looks great in glass: color and creamy foam. Creamy aroma, best when fresh. Smooth.

I drank this when I was in Prauge some time ago. Only on tap and bottle, didn’t even know you could find it in a can. However, you can’t get in i Sweden and my memories are a bit hazy. I do seem to recall though a very creamy foam, not very different from whipped cream or molten vanilla ice cream. Also very smooth and non-offensive (and I mean this in a good way).

Medium offwhite creamy head over light chestnut brown body. Light caramel aroma with notes of straw and a little hops. Nice, soft mouthfeel. Burnt, soft caramel taste, somewhat watery, with a dry, bitter aftertaste. Some hops in the background throughout. Well-made, but boring. (0.5l bottle.)

I drank a can of this in the airport. It was a mediocre ale. It was too carbonated for my taste.

Expensive for a Czech beer at 28 Crowns. Gold and heavily carbonated. Thick, off-white head. Aroma of corn and canned peas; and neither is good. Flavor has more corn and chemicals. Disappointing. Bottle. I see no reason why this is more than a pale lager, and not a very good one at that.
