Unfiltered, pale draft beer.
This refreshing summer beer is so light that is must be drunk veeeery fast, so that it does not run out of the glass. The colour resembles dandelions in bloom and the fine foam head is reminiscent of dandelion fluff. The mild base is balanced by a decent bitterness, set just right. When one breathes in, a freshly-scythed meadow passes through the nostrils. This purely natural drink tends to be especially appreciated by the velocipedists (bikers) and by those who gravitate to remote places.

Nicely looking slightly deep golden, transparent and slightly translucent with just a hint of haziness. Medium or slighlty below medium head, good retention and lacing. Pretty vivid and wonderfully refreshing nose, especially for the low abv, with a fresh flowery, delicately citric (zesty, slight cedar) hoppiness, perhaps with a grassy hint, over a delicate slightly crackery malts base, with hints of straw/hay. Taste follows the aroma closely, sweetness and bitterness are both mild (at least for the average svetly, obviously) but quite discernible, with excellent balance in the mouth and a slightly dry, delicate bittering edge; sadly, also an off-path earthy note in finish/aftertaste, though mild and far from too annoying. Light bodied as obvious, perhaps slightly less than i would have expccted for the abv, medium quite dense-feeling and crispy carbonation, bringing a pleasantly lively feel that doesn't take away from drinkability. Very good stuff!

Flaska från Kihoskh. Disig gyllengul vätska med högt vitt skum. Lite mer karamell och smörkola, läs diacetyl, än vad tjeckisk pilsner brukar ha, men ingen enkelspårig smak utan både fina maltiga brödiga smaker och örter, blommor, hö och beskt gräs finns där och skaparverkstad balanserad smak- och nyansrik pilsner. En av de bästa 3,5-or jag druckit. Mycket gott

Tap at NaPalmě. Clear golden body, lasting ivory head. Light aroma, cereally, herbal, bit sweaty. Lean, light, bit flat taste, some liight sweaty fruit, bit minerally, herbal bitterish finish. Okay.

Bottle 50 cl. Pours a clear, deep golden with a white head. Fairly buttery aroma. Light body. Dry malts and a very bitter finish. But unfortunately the diacetyl is pretty prominent throughout. 180822

500ml bottle. Crisp, grainy and slightly malty with hints of hay. Light bodied, but crushable.
