Tap at the brewpub. Golden body, off-white head. Orange-herbal modern hoppiness on white bread crust Czech maltiness and it kinda works. Citric, herbal, bit earthy-dank hoppiness non caramelly, light socks, solid bitterness. Not bad, bit flat and socky but nicely old school.

Tap at the brewpub. Darker brown body, beige, thick head. Toasty aroma, light dried fruit/raisiny maltiness, vaguely creamy. Creamy taste, lovely toasty-roasty interplay, dark chocolate with raisins vibes, creamy, ends bitter from the hops and the roast, sweetish enough, lower carbonation. Slightly too bitter but excellent!

Fabrika F 12° Lager on tap at the brewpub. Golden body, slightly off-white thick head. Lightly buttery herbal hoppy aroma, similar taste - diacetyl mainly giving its slickness, helping a herbal, bitter, lightly socky but pleasant hop profile along. Bit hoppier Urquell when it's not a butter bomb as it usually is. Fun, imperfect and yet appealing hoppiness, a very Czech beer in the middle of Bratislava.

Tap at the brewpub. Ever so slightly hazy yellow-golden body, almost Kristallweizen levels of clarity, white head. Big esters in the aroma, stone fruit, mild banana, mild caramel and light clove phenols. Soft, sweetish, lean estery taste, stone fruit and banana, mild cloves, ending in a dry finish, bit citric. Complex but gets cut off at the right moment. Tasty, very well made stuff!

Tap at Fabrika. Golden body, just slightly more washed out than the 12°, lasting white head. Whoa, a big bready, bit herbal aroma. Lean, herbal hoppy taste, mild bready touches, some slightly washed out citric touches the only hint of the extremely low alcohol. Respect!
