Bohemian Pilsener or 'světlý ležák' by Scottish Harviestoun; enjoyed from a bottle at Aberdeen airport as the last Scottish beer of my trip in Scotland (ignoring a Punk IPA by BrewDog). Snow white, bubbly, medium thick, lightly lacing, breaking head over a crystal clear pale 'metallic' brass-golden robe with lively sparkling. Aroma of dried white bread, grass, petrichor, wet cereals, ferrous spring water, dried flowers, green tree leaves in spring. Rounded grainy onset, sweetish with lots of prickly carbonation forming an important minerally undercurrent, running through the whole like a babbling mountain brook. Greenish-cereally malts remain pure till the end, rounded and thereafter bittered by a grassy, even rooty, 'green', very credible, even somewhat 'raw' hoppiness. Quite a solid and pure Pilsener, above average for one not made in its home region, I would say.

Poured light reddish brown, aroma of grass and some mild peat or maybe I’m being swayed. Very good session lager

Bottle from lowcostbeer.com, BBE unknown. Pours a clear gold, small white head, leaves a nice top with lacing. Aroma grain, sweetness, floral and citrus hops. Decent depth for a lager. Taste is biscuit, honey, lime, floral sap, crisp grassy bitter bite. Light to medium bodied, soft carbonation. Excellent craft lager. One of the best lagers I've had.

Bottle 0,5ltr: Scottish lager brewed in the best Czechs way. Golden coloured with a grassy/fruity taste and a well sweet bitter finish.

18/7/2024. Cask at the 2024 Chelmsford Summer Beer & Cider Festival. Pours clear golden with a small bubbly/frothy off-white head. Good looking beer. Aroma is malt, caramel, grains, citrus, grass, gooseberry, passion fruit. Moderate sweetness, medium bitterness and body. Oily, smooth, soft carbonation. Nice bitterness to finish. Likeable and more enjoyable from cask.

Gold with a frothy, white head. Grainy aroma. Highlight is the taste, a pleasant, crisp bitterness with some soft, doughy sweetness underneath. Body to the light side of medium, balanced carbonation. Drinkable.
