Bottle (RBESG Pilsen): Sweet grainy nose with some traces of hops, a bit cardboardy, too; straw golden, smaller, persistent white head; moderate sweet-bitter flavour, light bodied; light lemony bitter-sweet finish. Well drinkable....

Bottle at the RBESG08 Grand Tasting. Dark brown, dusty malty aroma. Syrupy malt in mouth. Dusty malt on finish. Not great, but pretty inoffensive.

Bottled at RBESG. Nut brown, creamy head. Evident caramel aroma. Sweet and fruity with medium body and rather soft mouthfeel. The caramelly malt is balanced by salty grassy hops. Quite bitter finish.

26/10 0.33 l bottle (thanks Doggythedog for the tip). Poured deep clear reddish body with medium creamy ebony head. Quite weak and sourish aroma...a bit bready...huh...flavor sweetish, bitterish, everything quite watery with some metallicity. Some fruitiness might be here but very little. Low carbonation. Finish is quite short and watery. Why such a beer from Licanka? Blah...
