Can courtesy of Marko, cheers Marko! we had this sat in Frank (camper) Friday 25th July 2025 after a lovely day in Plzen including a great afternoon at Ravensfest. Pours hazy light mid/gold with a white head, nice nose, typical notes but with a little vanilla. Soft mouthfeel, nice bite, bitterness is there but I frequently think is this another brewery more familiar with NEIPAs that are now turning their hand to Westies.

Can, shared with Hrabren and Ogi. Hazy golden body, off-white head. The aroma promises a fair bit, solid heap of resin, berries underneath, bit hoppy-funky. Lean, dry, crispyish taste, heaps of resin again, citric, herbal, vaguely tart, lower bitterness than I would expect, but it's there. Very well balanced as well. Solid stuff, enormously drinkable!

0.5 l can thanks to Marko who brought it from Prague, shared with Ogi and him. Unclear golden, small off-white head. Moderately hoppy, piney, resinous, minty, herbal aroma. Spices and malts here and there. Light to medium body, zesty, piney, citrusy, some candy. Malts. A bit on the sweeter side but gives out a very old school feeling. Slightly sticky. Dry finish, not too bitter.
