Can to becher pint glass.
Appearance: dark brown close to black color with a one and a half fingers of eggshell white foamy head, dissipated nicely to leave some messy lace
Aroma: dark malty sweetness and roastiness, subtle roasted coffee tones, baker's chocolate, light toast and a touch of earthy hops
Flavor: semi-sweet through the prior mentioned aromas; mild aftertaste of dark breadiness and earthy hops
Texture: medium bodied, great sessionability, good smoothness on tongue; crisp, dark malty and lingering earthiness in the finish
Overall: I say a nice dark lager I'd seek again.

Tap at PBF. Very classic, rather dry, thin body, medium carbonation. Medium bitterness, low sweetness. Light biscuity toasted malt character, also light coffeeish dark character. Light pleasant lagery basement yeastiness.very well balanced, very good. I dig this.

Tap at Pult, thx! Creamy blackish body, off-white head. Creamy nuty, caramelly, cocoa aroma. Similar taste, light, creamy, dry, nutty, caramelly, cocoa, roasty, low green apple later. Good one, if lacking body and daring for a "wow" effect - typical by the book, very good American take at a Czech style really.

Аромат немного странный, как то солод подванимает слегка кортонкой, но немного, есть сухость от весьма сильно жженого солода карамельного. Цвет темный, полу прозрачный, пенка средняя. Вкус читый и в стиль, больше в чешском стиле, есть горчинка в конце с сухостью. Но водичка все равно не сказать что чистая как будто, странные нотки есть. А так в стиле.

Single to go from Churchkey when it was just way too busy for me. Low-ball back at the hotel. Frothy, Coca-Cola pour. Gentle coffee roast, dry nuts, slight maple nose. Taste is cola, plain Cheerios, watered down coffee, lingering bittersweet & mellow char with a pleasant acidity. Got better as it warmed. Thin, acidy, parching, middle-high carb, easy abv. Pretty good.
