200ml draught at Rat Race Taproom. Clear late straw coloured body, covering white head leaving dotted spots on the glassware. Quite inviting fresh aromas of herbal hops and grain. Fine blended taste of mild bread-like malts, grass, and herbal hops. Ends with a distant touch of citric bitterness. Summer feel. (Chania, 22.06.2026).

Il gusto al naso è indirizzato verso l'orzo. L'olfatto viene stimolato in maniera normale e l'esistenza olfattiva è sufficiente. Il cappello di schiuma resiste abbastanza. La grandezza delle bollicine è medio-fine. La grandezza delle bollicine è a grana media. Il liquido è di aspetto velato. Il colore è giallo paglierino. Il corpo è pieno. L'amaro è pronunciato. La forza gustativa è elevata e permane in maniera sufficiente. Il gusto è piacevole. Le sensazioni boccali finali risultano di birra beverina. Il retrogusto è di decente intensità. Al gusto vengono donati toni di miele, frutta secca, erbaceo, agrumi, spezie e pompelmo rosa.

440ml can, MH 2026 tasting, thx F&L! Lightly hazy paaaaale shiny yellow body... Misconception no. 1 - Czech Pilsners frequently have a certain percentage of a darker malt (color, body, taste etc.), they generally aren't 100% floor malted pilsner malt. The aroma is definitely Czech or Czechoid hops, herbal and lemony mostly, bit minerally. Extremely dried out taste, there's some bug in here sadly. Herbal and citric hops, actually some rougher herbal bitterness there, which I prefer to the no-bitterness idiocy. Hmm... this has promise, I'd be crushing these in Greece no problem!

Can courtesy of Kostas, Kykao brewery, cheers Kostas! Had this Saturday 14th February at the Manglham 2nd Winter Tasting listening to The Orb - Buddhist Hipsters. Pours clear silvery gold in colour with a very light haze. Nice hoppiness on the nose, lemony mouthfeel, nicely bitterness, streaky with a dry finish, in terms of authenticity yeah it's probably missing the target a bit but I am enjoying it and would be happy drinking a few of these. Score 7.5
