| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 4/5 | 5/10 | 4/5 | 10/20 | Nov 4, 2009 500 ml. bottle. Pours a white head which drops into a thin layer, with attractive lacing, over a clear yellow (SRM 3-4) body.....nose is light malts, with biscuit, yeast, bit of hop spice....taste is cereal, malt to start, then mild rounded, short lived bitterness....mouth feel is on the light side of medium, carbonation medium. Not as spicy or bitter as the best but a reasonable example of the style.

| 2.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 2/5 | 4/10 | 2/5 | 11/20 | Dec 16, 2009 500ml bottle. Pours orange, vanishing white head. Aroma has cereal and caramel malt and some grass/ citrus hops. Smells a bit unfocused and tastes it too. Fairly watery but still pretty smooth. Hops are a bit outmuscled by sweetness. Nothing special. Vaiz (112), Netherlands
| 2.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 10/20 | Dec 15, 2009 50 cl can. Pours a clear golden color with a small white head. Aroma is a bit grainy and malty. Flavor has a decent bitterness that characterizes a good bohemian pilsener, yet is still slightly watery. Still a lot better that Dutch macrobrew.

| 2.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 3/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 10/20 | Dec 9, 2009 Comes in a beautiful bottle, pours a nice golden yellow with a medium white head. Smelled a bit skunked but also had strong hop notes, tasted very clean with a slight bit of sour apple at the end. Goes down very smooth, a fine lager from the Slovaks Muggus69 (538), Sydney, Australia

Pretty average sort of pale lager. Bit metallic and uninteresting, nothing slight pilsner malts but not much to it really. Dedollewaitor (3746), Odense, Denmark

| 1.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 3/10 | 2/5 | 2/10 | 2/5 | 2/20 | Nov 11, 2009 Mmmm... skunky and chewy? Poured half the bottle into a chilled mug, and dumped the rest down the sink... bought due to the great label, gold foil packaging... but, the beer itself, if you could bottle "armpit juice," this is it. Sorry (old, very old, dusty, warm bottle from a local "discounter," maybe that’s why this bottle was way funky). Cheers....?
