Tap at the Prague Beer Museum at Náměstí Míru Prague. Poured a clear light amber with a frothy white head. The aroma is light zesty citrus. The flavour is medium bitter with a light fruity hop light spice pepper palate. Light bodied with average carbonation. Really liked this one. Loved the fruit hop combo with a spicy kick in the tail.

Large PET bottle thanks to Bruce. It pours hazy golden-yellow with a small white head. The nose is doughy, buttered toast, grass, straw and white bread. The taste is crisp, grassy, straw, peppery, good bitterness, straw and mild astringency with a dry finish. Medium body and moderate carbonation. Crisp and pretty drinkable. Alright but doesn’t excite me.

Tap at RJ. Aroma rich caramel malty with hints of roasted malt. Deep brownish amber colour. Huge stable head. Taste is mostly malty in flavour with decent balancing bitterness, only partly from hops. Moderate to strong caramel flavour with light roasted coffee in background. Very nice beer, easily drinkable. Warm finish with notes of grassy hops. Hops progressively appears in the mid taste also.
