A very drinkable American Pale Ale with notes of tropical fruit and California pine. Named in honour of one of Pilsen's (and America's) favourite sons, who helped to brew the first batch.

On tap at Ravenfest Friday 25th July 2025. Pours hazy, yellow with a mid large sticky white head, long lasting head may I add. Nice mouthfeel, soft, but with a furry rub across the tongue. Bitterness is initially slow but then floods through, mostly citrus and mostly pithy, very good.

Tmavsi ember barva, lehce zakalena, nizka pena. Vune borovice, citrusy. Chut lehka, nizsi horkost (na ale urcite), sladke tony ananasu, tropickeho ovoce, trocha horkosti v ocase. Pitelnost nizsi nez proklamovana, spise takovy bonbonek na zaver. V porovnani se Zichovcovym Robinem mene horkosti, vice sladke.

many thanks for this beer to Cusu. Jest delikatniej, mniej chmielnie niz wersja Drifter. Barwa ciemno zlota do jasno bursztynowej, niemal klarowne z minimalna iloscia osadu, Piana srednia i srednio trwala.

Bottle. Thanks Fil & co! Murky dark amber body with an off whtie head. Fresh aroma basically - citric (orange?), gum, clean maltiness, just so nicely freshly hoppy. Full taste for the abv, mixing the orange/citric hoppy notes with a grainy malty background and mixing it well, lovely rounded body, ending bitterish & a bit dry. Much much better than Drifter IMO and a very good classic APA.

Tap at Nubeerbar, Prague. Poured a clear medium amber with a lasting frothy white head and lots of clingy lace. The aroma is malt, light citrus, woody hop. The flavour is moderate bitter with a smooth, malt, yeasty, light fruit, woody hop bitter palate. Medium to light bodied with soft carbonation. Ok, but far from great. The beer was somewhat bland and needs more defining flavours.
