Can to lager glass.
Appearance: semi-murky yellow-ish cardboard coloring with a two and a half fingers of white fluffy head which dissipated nicely and left some light lace
Aroma: wet grains, subtle floral hop tones; mild biscuity malts
Flavor: blends the aromas fairly nice to a malty crisp semi-sweetness; decent little aftertaste of grains, floral hops and malts
Texture: light to medium bodied, sessionable; nice enough smoothness along the tongue; finishes fairly smooth with a touch of dryness and toastiness
Overall: as far as I know, it works as a pilsner, and a Czech one, sure why not. And for me, I'd return to this.

Can to becher glass.
Appearance: dark murky orange with a finger and a half's worth of white foamy head which dissipated nicely to leave some light lace
Aroma: some light blended to semi-muted fruity hop tones with clean biscuity malts
Flavor: blends the prior noted aromas together fairly malty and then has a sly aftertaste of fruity hop tones
Texture: light to medium bodied, sessionable; clean smoothness on the tongue; finishes semi-crisp with the fruity hop tones
Overall: I think I would like this more if the fruity hop tones were bit more displayed; however, it is pretty good for what it is.

Flavor: meshes the prior noted aromas together fairly malty sweet with a light aftertaste of biscuits and grassy spicy hops
Texture: light to medium bodied, sessionable; fairly smooth along the tongue; finishes crisp and semi-floral with some grassy spicy hops
Overall: to me a nicely done lager I would return to.

Can to becher glass.
Appearance: dark orange cardboard color with a two finger white foamy head which slid off at a nice pace to leave some light lace
Aroma: light tones of grapefruit, lemon, floral hops, some sweet grains and lean biscuity malt backbone
Flavor: gently blends the aromas together to come up with a mild malty sweetness underscored by the hops; light aftertaste of the malts with some lemon to floral hops
Texture: light to medium bodied, sessionable; good smoothness along the tongue; finishes malt forward with a touch of the lemony hoppiness
Overall: pretty good pale ale - seemed kinda old school but I didn't mind for me.
