Clear, yellow colored, medium- frothy white head. Aroma is of some malt, bit grain, bit metallic, some sulphur. Taste is medium sweet malt, grain, again metallic and sulphury notes, medium grassy bitterness, dryish. Medium to light bodied, average carbonation. Not very good...

Thanks kajser! Golden clear body, lively carbonation, thick white head, medium retention. Sulphury-meaty stale yeasty aroma, dry. Meaty taste, light body, lemony hoppy touch. Terrible back ground, kinda balanced out by that hoppy touch, vague bitterness, but still pretty terrible for a Czech lager.
