0.5 l can from 'Beerdome', best before June 2025. Slightly hazy, golden with a medium large, frothy, almost stable, white head. Sweetish, slightly fruity-floral and a bit grassy aroma of grains, lemon peel and some butter. Slightly sweet, moderately bitter, gently grassy-spicy and a bit fruity-floral taste of grains, butter, lemon peel and some straw, followed by a short, quite bitter, slightly dry finish. Medium body, smooth and slightly effervescent mouthfeel, soft carbonation. Solid.
0.2 l on tap at '100 pív' simply as 'General Grunt' at 3.8% abv. Almost clear, straw yellow with a medium large, frothy, slowly diminishing, white head. Faint, sweetish, slightly grassy-spicy aroma of grains, straw and a touch of butter. Slightly sweet, moderately bitter, gently grassy-spicy taste of grains, straw and a touch of butter, followed by a short, moderately bitter, slightly dry, quite grassy-spicy finish. Medium body, slightly creamy and moderately effervescent mouthfeel, average carbonation. Okay! (09.05.2018)

Can 500ml (BB 06/22025). Golden colour, big white head. Looks like East European PET ESLs. A bit bready aroma with some fruityness and honey. Light-bodied. Herbal citrus, some sweetness in the flavour. Quite odd East European vibe in this one.

500ml. BB 06/2025. Hazy orange colour, small white head. Fruity herbal aroma. Light-bodied. Fruityness, pale malts, citrus, light herbal notes but not really lemongrass. Easy. Probably better when fresh.

Tap at Zil verne. Med-full body, medium carbonation. High sweetness, medium bitterness. Lots of old grandma chocolate, cocoa. Light deep roast. Med-light mint, a bit weird feeling. Overall good but not great, a bit rough and simple.

Tap at Bratislavka. Not very IPAish. Medium body, medium carbonation. Hops in the background, pear and spices in the foreground, clove, cinnamon. Easy drinking, clean. Missing hops, but I do not mind. Good.

Tap at Žil Verne. Lightly hazy golden body, thick creamy off-white head. Fermented fruit, baked apple, some spicy phenols in the aroma. Bit grainy sweetish taste, creamy before it gets dry in the finish. Nah, naaaah, not an IPA in any world.

Tap at Bratislavka. High bitterness, medium sweetness. Was better when it was fresher. But still okay. Dank hops, citrusy. Quite juicy. Good but not great.
