Tap at Napalme, Zhurak TTO. Initially cheesy unpleasant hops, a bit sulfury. But gets better with drinking. High bitterness, light caramelly sweetness. Could use more hops aromatics, medium grassy, piney, med-light citrusy. Goodish.

Tap at Napalme, Zhurak TTO. Med-full body, light carbo. High bitter, med-light sweet. Medium zestiness. Lvots of hops, but weird grassy-sweaty-zesty combo. Good, a bit messy, but good.

Tap at SvS 2025. Pitch black body, tan head. Cocoa, light prunes, some herbal hoppy touches in the intensive aroma. Medium body, heaps of prunes, pleasant maltiness, bit citric, ending bitterish. Lovely, fresh, tasty, not complex, but works!

Tap at SvS 2025. Murky golden body, off-white head. Orange, herbal hoppy notes, bit oaty. Juicy, bitter orange taste, heavy orange notes really, heavy herbal notes, very nice, if a bit too bitter, far more than 39 I'd say (it does say 39+ to Chris' defense!).

Tap at SvS 2025. Paaale hazy yellow body, off-whtie head. Resinous, bit citric taste, bit dry and herbal, not too kveikish in the aroma. More so in the taste, got those Voss grape vibes, with more citric, resinous and herbal notes. Nice!

On tap at Purkmister Sun in a Glass Bierfest, Purkmister brewpub, Plzeń, Friday 19th September 2025 after a walk from our campsite at Škodaland Plzeń into the city then back out after a couple of beers in the city. Pours dark brown edging towards black, peeling away to lighter brown at the edges after the off white head started to drift away. Roasty nose but also a little resinous. Roasty in the mouth, hoppy, streaky resinous, bitter, nice mouthfeel, it's a good beer.

Tap at Slunce ve skle 2025. Murky green body, off-whit ehead. Candyish apple, kiwi, tropical fresh aroma. Kiwi, green apple, light tropical fruit, mildly earthy, pleasantly sour, fresh, lovely. Probably the most popular beer of the festival, the brewery went through almost two kegs on Friday, with just a few liters left for Saturday, leaving, many people disappointed.

Pours light gold with a white head. Citrus from the off, nice mouthfeel, easy drinking and actually don't be fooled by the session IPA name, this msy technically be correct for the style but it's still 5.5% .
