Hazy golden color. The aroma is too simple. The flavor is better, with a light maltiness, dry, and a very strong bitterness, unusual. At least the final is pleasant.

(Bottle 34,5 cl) Clear, pilsener golden with a white head. Clean, malty nose. Medium body with a solid malt profile and dry hops in the finish. Fairly solid and clean pilsener.Thanks to highlandlad for this. 160806

Clear dark yellow color, short head. Aroma of saaz hop, some grain. Soft sweet taste, moderately bitter. Very nice balance. They should have this stuff on tap instead of all those pale lagers.

Bottle. Golden beer with a nice head that quickly disapears. A fruity/grassy aroma that's faint. Very well balanced. There's a good malt flavor that gives way to gives way to a gently spicey/fruity hop flavor, ending with a nice crisp bite. Very well balanced pils with a lot of flavor. In a blind taste test this finished ahead of Pilsner Urquell and Budvar/Czechvar to everyone's surprise.

Deep golden colour. Firmly malty, bready, dry and clean. Slightly salty and bitter finish. An excellent firm malty pilsener, which I find closer to a south German pilsener than a Czechish one.
