Bohemian Lager
Golden coloured lager with a head as white as snow. This beer has complex malt and hop flower aromas. It is full-bodied and the aftertaste is smooth and malty with a touch of sulphur. The noble hops used in this beer bring about a sharp but delicate bitterness.

Smells like nothing but a bit of wheat. Tastes like a typical bohemian brew. Actually has a strong taste of rye or something. A little bit bitter. Not bad for the style. On tap at DDC.

Bottle: Poured a clear bright golden color lager with a large frothy head with good retention and minimal lacing. Aroma of clean crisp cereal notes with light dry hoppy notes. Taste is a nice mix between some clean cereal notes with some light crisp dry hops with a semi-sweet malt backbone. Body is fuller then average with good carbonation. Very well brewed though a bit too sweet for my taste.

Lemon, orange, pink grapefruit, earthy hops. Nice bitterness that finishes a slight bit dry. Raw and good.

A spot on Czech pils - superb balance, with crisp noble hops balancing out a bready malt base and a slightly buttery character - hints of toasted grains in the finish - very light sweetness adds a base for this character, as well as light floral notes - creamy and smooth, yet crisp at refreshing at the same time - one of the best lagers I’ve had in quite some time.

On draught 4/16/05 at the brewpub with MartinT. Served in a large pilsener glass, this beer appears bright yellow-gold, shining and clear. You have to love natural filtration, as this one maintains a wonderful creamy mouthfeel and moderate carbonation, that is still natural and tingling. The white head is initially large and slowly dissipates to a ring. Good lacing on the glass is left behind. The aroma is of sweet honey and vanilla flavored malt, with a tremendous fuzzy, green and fresh hops nose, neither too overpowering nor too subtle. Flavor is lightly malty, moderately hoppy and the mouthfeel is smooth throughout, finishing crisp and lightly peppery. Lemons and honey, fresh mineral water, light cream, pears and light apples with a perfect balance of hops. I was surprised to learn that these can be made in a vertical ale fermentation tank, I had always thought they needed a horizontal lagering vessel. But I guess the low alcohol does not require as much activity as say a Maibock or doppelbock. Wonderful stuff. If they only sold this by the 30 pack here in Mass, I’d be all set with my beer needs for the summer. A lovely, smooth pils without all of the cookies and heavy dough. To me, what this lacks in sheer force of flavor, it makes up for in perfect balance and mouthfeel with a riveting appearance.

Golden colour. Nutty, malty aroma. Crisp palate. Saaz hops in abundance (~32 IBUs I’d guess). Long, grassy, noble bitterness. I like it.
