Tap at the Hotel Continental, Whitstable. Poured a crystal clear straw colour with a thin broken white head and plenty of bubbles. The aroma is malt, light hop. The flavour is moderate bitter with a light watery, crisp, refreshing hop bitter palate. Light to medium bodied with lively carbonation. An easy drinking summer Pilsner.

Bottle: Pale golden, hazy, small white foamy layer, perfumed grainy nose with very well hidden hoppy traces; tart bitter flavour, light bodied and harsh; short bitter-fruity finish. Oh no, they should better keep on brewing Oyster Stout…

330ml bottle. Pours light gold with no head. Aroma is a bit of vinegar and a little cheesy champagne. Taste has grass and straw with a slight sour touch. Better then a macro but still a bit boring.

330ml bottle from Utobeer Market Stall, shared with friends at a hotel room in Earls Court. Gushy stuff, not easy to stop, but we managed at last to get a good taste of the remaining content. Huge, but quickly vanishing, white foam. Hazy, straw coloured with a greenish tint. Malt-fruity aroma. Bready malts and subdued citrus in flavour. Dry in the mouth. Medium bodied. Alright, but far from memorable (London, 02.08.2009).

Bottle 33 cl. Courtesy of yespr. Hazy golden with a rough white head. Discreet aroma with a whiff of sweet malts. Medium body, heavy carbonation, weird bonbon-like accents and some exotic fruits. Dry and lightly sulphurous finish. Not unpleasant but very far from a Pilsener. 190209

Bottled. A hazy light golden beer with a thin off-white head. The aroma is sweet with light notes of malt and dust. The flavor is sweet malty with notes of bread and metal, leading to a dry metallic and bitter finish.

clear yellow,thick white head. aroma is faint, mild, a bit buttery, citrussy. flavor is quite sweet, end a little bitter, reasonable pilsener like flavor, but for me a bit too sweet. sweetness is kinda strange, resembles honey more than sugar. corn?

33 cL bottle. Pours hazy yellow with a small white head. Egg aroma, light cornish note. Dry and bitter to slight spiced hoppy flavoured. Subdued malt note. Unusual bohemian given the UK hops profile - I got no what so ever Saaz from this.

Deep golden colour, good carbonation to medium, white head. Toasted & herbal nose; toasted malts mainly, and (grilled?) artichoke, and a whiff of rancid fat or maize (=fatty acids?). Dry, malty taste, less toasted than the nose. There remains, however, a hint of racked corn flavour, maizeshoots-oil, that sits uneasy on something that is supposed to be Bohemian-style Pilsner. Retronasal I get some pineappleester. Light to medium bodied, slightly oily MF, leaving a sticky deposite on the old mucoses (as Bertie Wooster would have said). One question defies all other concerning this "Pilsner": IS it a Pils? What kind of yeast was used upon these Saaz-hopped worts?
