This was poured into a pilsner glass.
The appearance was a glossy burnt orange color with a slight transparency about it. Carbonation could be seen rising towards a quickly dissipating one finger white foamy head. Mild foamy white lacing stuck around the glass and then slid nicely.
The smell started off with some sweet biscuit/breadiness. Subtle sweet grassy hops slide in for the balance.
The taste was mildly sweet with the grassy hops making a decent effort to balance. Super light biscuity aftertaste.
On the palate, this one sat about a light on the body with a fair sessionability about it. Carbonation felt good for a pilsner. Nothing wrong with it.
Overall, Czech Pilsner, damn right it is and a nice one that I would be willing to come back to.

Can consumed en route to JFK on my last US trip. Pours gold with a foamy, white head. The nose has some fusel alcohol, bready pale malts, ripe melon and orange. Medium sweet flavour with strong bready malt character, some booze, minerals, gooey melon. Full bodied with average carbonation. Warming on the finish, resinous, with more heavy bread notes, rich pine, melon, orange, some rindy bitterness. A little simple and heavy handed, but not bad.

Pours a hazy amber colour with a fizzy head that disappears very quickly leaving no lace. Mild fruity malt aromas with hints of caramel and maple syrup. The maple syrup is more present in the taste. Gets stronger in the aftertaste. A little too sweet, too rich for my licking as not much other malts or wheat support this. Wish the wheat was stronger, better. Not so bad, but not something I would want to have again.

2015 edition purchased in Vermont. Pours a clean deep amber, kind of copper colour with a fizzy head that disappears quickly and no lace. Roasted grain aromas with some nuttiness and hints of fruits. The taste has the same reminding me of a more roasted and nutty malt red ale. Some decent hops in the finish creating a mild dryness. Not sure about the bock style, but as a red ale (ok, lager), pretty nice.

Purchased in Vermont in their mixed pack. Pours a clean dark amber colour, almost copper. Small head, beige with not much follow-up. Beautiful spices in the nose with the barley malt, fruitiness and hints of molasses. Fruity flavours with malt, light sweetness and decent bitter hop in the finish. Quite easy to drink. Surprised to find a barley wine in a taster pack. Glad though.

Mixed pack purchased in Vermont. Clean golden colour with a white head and good lacing. Grainy aromas with hints of honey and reminding me of a pilsner. Cereal grain taste with a little sweetness. Soda water feel. A decent golden ale that is grainy and easy-drinking.

Mixed pack bought in Vermont. Pours a clean amber colour with a fizzy head that does not stay long. A small ring is left because of the heavy carbonation. Aroma of caramel malts with decent hops. Hints of nuts. A lot of the same for the taste, but watered down. Hoppy finish with mild bitterness. An average red ale. Sandlike residue at the bottom. Not sure if normal.

Purchased bottle at Tops in Vermont on my trip there. Pours a black-brown colour with a mocha head that lasts pretty long for such a high alcohol content. Decent foamy lacing. Aromas of raisins and grape, from the dark fruits of the malt to the mild wine barrel contribution. Some nuttiness, but mostly sweetness. This one has a higher hop factor them most of this style, so more bitter with some good dryness. Roasted malts, apples, dark fruits and coffee in the finish. Hints of chocolate. A pretty solid aged Impy stout.

Tap at Reservoir, Waterbury. Colour is clear dark copper with small white head. Aromas and flavours: Some dry fruits, some sweetness and malts. Very boring. I don’t get point of this one.

Can thanks to Josh. Pours a hazy orange with a small white head that lasts. The aroma is strong pine and dank. Medium mouth, pineapple, dank, resin finish, very good.
