Bottle picked up from Globus hypermarket Ceské Budêjovice and consumed at home Monday 31st August 2026 after a nice Spaghetti Bolognese for tea tonight. Pours light gold large white head, a little bit of the usual non alcoholic taint creeps in, a little bit of metallic, soft mouthfeel, clean but yeah it's definitely only mid table at best. Score:5.4

Bottle, 4.7%. Lagery aroma with a rough hoppiness in the nose. Clear dark golden colour. Sparkling. Very big, stable creamy, rocky white head. The flavour is slightly grainy with a rough hop note. Ok mouthfeel. Clean, but the type of uncompromising hop I do not enjoy so much.

Classic lager. Thin bod, med-high carbo. Med bitter, low sweet, dry. Light honeyish bready malt, light grassy herbal hops. Could use more hops. Med-light oxidation, but whatever. Good for what it is.

Almost clear golden with a foamy head. Metal, lemon zest, grain, again metal. Metallic bitterness. Medium bodied, oily texture, lively carbonated, dry metallic malty bitter finish. It’s a very simple Bohemian lager with an industrial taste. Not the most appealing one, but overall solid.

From tap at Ferdinánd Monarchia Étterem 06.09.24. Clear mahogany. Beige head. Excellent aroma and taste of sweet, medium roasted malta, dates, rasins and mellow hops. Very drinkable! A very good specimen of the style.

Tap at Restaurace Ferdinand. Oooh, now that low alcohol radlers are okay, I couldn't not go for this .rar whale once I spotted it among the taps. Hazy golden body with a weirdly orangeish, fleeting head. Real OJ used? Could well be! OJ in the aroma mixed with some maltiness. Sweetish OJ taste, maltier, barely a radler, lower carbonation, vague bitterness. Didn't thrill, but it's good for what it is!

Tap at Restaurace Ferdinand, Benešov. Improved recipe, they say. Full golden body, thick off-white head, lasting. Hoppy aroma, herbal, bit dusty, some white grape touches. Medium-light body, sweetish, clean maltiness, full, mild herbal hoppy notes heading into a good bitterish hoppy finish. Clean, well balanced, works!
