Crisp, clean and sessionable, with a firm but rounded hop backbone, Alexandr is the first and original Czech-style pilsner crafted at Schilling. Authentic raw materials shine, and so will almost any beer-friendly food paired with this Czech-inspired lager.

Clear pale straw body, thick, puffy off-white head leaving curtains of lacing. Nose grassy-lemony with herbal bitterness. Body nutty-cerealy-grassy with modest lemony tartness and a nice bite. Dry on balance. Very good.

Can from Tavour. Pours clear gold with a decent white head. Aroma is lightly grassy with some bready accompaniment. Med body. Flavor is lightly grassy/spicy with bready support. Not all that sure about Czech - blind taste I'd have said German. Dry. Moderately bitter.

Crystal clear golden coloured body with a yellow tint and a very thin, single centimetre tall pure white head that fades fast. Aroma of deep malts with some grainy and biscuity notes with some light yeast, but also a good hit of both citrus/lemons and some astringency from cleanser and more pungent notes. Light-bodied; Strong deep malty flavours dominate here with some noticeable astringencies and deep medicinal tastes, but some lighter citrus and malt flavours make this enjoyable throughout while providing a relatively light, but noticeable robust maltiness, but is still fairly easy-drinking. Aftertaste is dry, fairly malty, but showing some of the nice complexities - the lemons, the grass and the biscuity malt notes make this robust, but easy-drinking-ish. Overall, a nice, crisp, light lager that has a good deal of flavours, a smooth but noticeable complexity and a robust backbone of malts with aherbal, dry profile. I sampled this sixteen ounce, pint-sized can purchased from the Department of Beer and Wine in Alexandria, Virginia on 19-June-2020 for US$3,23 sampled at my house here in Washington on 02-September-2020.
