The Pilsener from this young Slovak craft brewery and brewpub. Medium thick, snow white, regular head, stable and leaving nice lacing, over an orangey blonde, clear beer, darker than expected from the style, with vivid fizz and some tiny dead yeast particles floating around here and there. Aroma very lightstruck at first (cat pee - the green bottle had already prepared me for this), fortunately fading away though not completely, and revealing a pleasant bready maltiness, biscuit, old cookies, cheese, some butterscotch, iron and grass. Clean and crisp taste with medium carbonation, malt sweet, a bit bready and grainy, metallic, with an early, grassy and peppery hop bitterness lasting quite long. Judging from something like this, I reckon the Slovak Republic has begun to catch up with the Czech Republic in terms of quality lagers. Admittedly I had better Czech Pilseners than this, but still this was better, maltier and less bland than expected. Many thanks to Sabine for bringing me a few bottles from the brewpub in Bratislava!
