From keg at Juova, Helsinki.
The beer poured slightly hazy golden color, white lasting head.
Grassy and light herbal. Soft, fairly smooth. Superb drinkability. Light bitterness. Awesome.

# 4599; 4/2025. Cellary, malty, herbal aroma. Murky gold body with small floating particles; tiny off-white head. Cellary, malty, herbal, slightly perfumy; slightly harsh bitter finish. Lighter body; medium carbonation; worse drinkability. Worse than expected from Hostomice brewery, still good pilsner. 0,5 l, can, brewery pub, Hostomice (Bohemia, CZ).

--Canned, thanks Marko! -Clear golden, firm mid sized head. Rich aroma of hay and bergamott. Mid dry with solid body and well rounded mouthfeel. Bready malt, lots of hay and tea. Long bitter finish. Excellent Czech lager, on the heavy and hoppy side.

Draught @ Nalevarna, Prague. Pours clear Golden with a small settling egg White head. Grassy and grainy nose. Clean , bready malt flavor with a little touch of alcohol. Very Helles Bock like. Perhaps not up to par with their 10-12 but still a very solid offering. Dry and slight bitter grassy finish.
