Tap at Festival letajicich pivovaru. Pretty bad damp musty off flavour dominates. Hops has a hard time coming through. Sawdust. Not good.

(PET bottle 1l from U Martina (Brno)) Overall: I don't like this sweet-caramel-jam-hoppy character. Aroma: Sweet, strawberry-jam-like hoppy. Appearance: Clear dark golden. Long lasting, white head. Taste: Light sweet, caramel, strawberry-jam, light bitter. Palate: Medium body. Bitter finish.

Tap at Sobotecký Jarmark. Hazy full yellow body, off-white head. Orange, honey light soapiness and herbal notes. Orange in the taste, soapy, yeasty, lactose touches, feels a bit stale, with nothing IPA-ish about it. No bitterness. Didn't get finished.

Tap at the Prague Beer Fest 2023 thanks to an unknown benefactor hahahah. This was actually the most bizarre tick of the day - there I was, minding my own business / working hard when a gentleman in his 50s sidled up to the stand and offered me a sip of his beer, Lončák he says, kyseláč. Tried to communicate with him in broken Czech, but he was slightly struggling to communicate himself, but not due to foreigner who should learn better Czech reasons. Still, I took the offered sip, as the soft red berry / raspberry aroma was pretty clean and fine, and my sip or two revealed a clean, well-made, lightly tart raspberry-driven taste. The gentleman, on the other hand, used the moment to grab something like 10 of our coasters in return. I put the beer back, he took it and on his merry way he went, having traded I guess, some of his beer for coasters he could've just taken without anyone making a fuss (at our stall at least). Still, I was glad to have tried a very much well made fruit sour from a brewery I hadn't had that many fantastic experiences with a year or two ago! Props to Lončák for improving too!

Tap at the Animal Beer Fest. Hazy golden-amber body, with a laaasting white head. Sweet malty aroma, light grapes, a bit slick. Same taste, sweetish malty taste, grape notes, somewhat slick, okay fruity touches, not particularly good, not particularly bad.

Tap at Brewstock 2021. Hazy golden body, white head. Huge huge huge DMS presence in the aroma that doesn't subside really, along with some herbal undertones. The same, aggressive DMS is there in the taste too, covering some light sweeetish malty and light flowery touches. Oof... I really wanted to try a 12° with Saturn - sadly, the DMS is covering just about everything but the hints of hints of what's underneath... Hopefully it will be better next time! --- Beer merged from original tick of Saturn 12° on 26 Jun 2021 at 12:49 - Score: Appearance - 8 | Aroma - 4 | Flavor - 4 | Texture - 8 | Overall - 5. Original review text: Tap at Cobolis 3rd Anniversary fest. The Letní was crossed out and this was written on the sign, no other info online right now. Golden body, a bit on the fizzy side, off white head. Herbal, earthy-carrot aroma, slightly soapy. Hmm. Bitter, simple taste, lightly bready, lightly flowry, but lightly earthy in the finish too. Huh, looks like some current house character of the plant as it showed up in the Sexy as well. Not terrible, but didn't like it. Shame, cool people and I hope they improve.
