Tap at the brewery. Med-light intensity overall, rather subtle. But that is not a bad thing. Med-light citruses and coriander center of stage. Light supporting wheaty maltiness. Med-thin body, moderate carbonation, could use a bit more. Good one.

Tap at the brewery. Not much more to say, other than this being a classic desitka. Very clean, very well balanced, very easy drinking. Nice med-high carbonation, reasonable med-light body. Grassy herbal hoppiness, soft malts. Great.

0.5l bottle from the brewpub, 5.8%. Almost pitch black brown body, tan head, medium retention. Chocolate and smoke in the aroma, starts full and sweetish, goes slightly lean later on. Lean taste, very nice dark chocolate, solid roastiness, light tartness, smoke coming on strong towards the finish. Solid smoked stout!

Bottle from the brewpub. Got it randomly on the night before the 1st Eurosong semifinal in 2021, and had it then, but the singing Albina definitely got robbed (and, though I was not rooting for it but Go_A - Shum as anyone with a modicum of taste would, I agree about that with the majority of the international Twitterverse, which is in uproar, but what can you do... ), Belgium, Norway and such richer countries with their absolutely cringeworthy songs mean more money in the finals than poor Croatia, right? Anywho. Misty golden body, some whiteish head. Citric, coriandery fine aroma, dusty but pleasant. Medium body towards lean, orange, coriander, lightly dusty and soapy, but juicy enough overall. A pleasant wit to wash out the bitterness of European small-country-bullying, circlejerk relationships and corruption. Damn good job, two good Czech wits in a day, yay!

Bottled from Pivotéka BeerGeek. Damn... Lajka's so damn out of my way nowadays that it's easier for me to get beers like this. Oh well. Tropical, lightly peachy aroma, vaguely creamy, dry. Soft taste, dry mostly nowadays, juicy, soft, light tropical and lightly citric notes, floral. Aah, I'm fairly sure this is not the freshest anymore, but the hoppy profile is still nice, and it's so clean and soft and almost juicy. I'm actually genuinely enjoying this, despite its age and it would probably score very well fresh - great job guys!
