Courtesy of kp. Pours a clear gold with white head. The aroma is sweet malts and some sweet wheat malts. The taste is the same sweet malts and sweet wheat malts noticed in the nose plus the addition of some nice fresh hop spice and floral noble hops that are on par with the malts creating some nice balance. It ends somewhat hoppy in flavor mixed with the sweet malts. It is fresher and more balanced than the DFH version. I liked it. It would be great on a hot Tampa day.

Bottle (purchased at the Pivovarsky Klub, Praha): Golden, small, loose head,grainy alcoholic nose; sweetish-sourish flavour,medium bodied; short grainy-alcoholic finish. Gulp, nomen est omen, tastes like a cheap polish Lager.........

Bottled, thanks oh6gdx! Dark amber. Mediium bodied with lots of caramel and balanced sweetness. Chewy toffeeish malt gives well rounded mouthfeel. Finishes carefully salty and grassy. Really well balanced.

"Svetly Breznicky Lezak (Premium Lager)
Golden color, small white head. Typical prototype of Czech-pils nose: buttery, oaky hoppy, even with diacetylic aroma. Par with flavor: buttery, slightly woody hoppy, light toffee notes. A bit too quick finish. Easy going pils.

Bottled@SBWF2007. Golden colour, mediumsized white head. Aroma is hops, grass, slight diacetyl and some mild malts. Flavour is the same, but the maltyness and grassyness are really big. Refreshing, but hard to get down...

(Bottle, Stockholm Beer Festival, 22 Sep) Golden yellow colour with white head. Malty, grassy nose with some toffee. Malty taste with notes of toffee, nuts and a genrous dose of grassy hops in the finish. Balanced malt sweetness. Clean, fresh, nice and tasty.

500ml bottle from Asda, labelled "Herold Czech Premium Lager". An intense golden colour with an off-white head, vigourous at first but quickly expiring, leaving little carbonation; fresh herbal aroma; full in the mouth with flowery hops and a touch of citrus, then a deep bitter kick, and a spicy warming finish. An excellent example of the style.

Cask at the Back of Beyond (JDW), Reading. Described as "Bohemian Granat" from "Pivovar Herold Breznice" and exclusive to JDW. A hazy chestnut colour with a dense cream head; a vegetative taste, not unpleasant, but slightly sour; with a nutty, fruity finish.

Only few breweries in the Czech Republic brew German style Hefeweizen. Large head, amber colour. There is a flavour reminiscent of apples, which I find remarkable. Yeasty and malty with dry and well-hopped finish.
