Wonderfull smoky aroma, there must be smokemalt in this, creamy fully lasting head, and dark redbrown colour. Wonderfull to look at. It tastes quite average though, short finish that doesn´t add up to the aroma

Bottled. Golden colour, rich head. Light saaz aroma. Sweet and light bodied, a bit thin. Low bitterness. Nice hop aroma, but lacking in body.

Bottle. Golden colour, very nice head. Nice aroma of hay. Full, quite sweet flavour. The finish is bitter and aromatic. Very nice lager.

Brilliant ruby-chestnut; slim white rim. Nose with bread, sweet like Marssala or other dark dessert wine, definitely vinous. Taste again bready and very faintly vinous. Finish is bitterish, rather metallic. Maybe rather Balsamico than wine. Medium body, bit watery at the end. Not bad. I wonder whence the name ("seven bullets", thanks motelpogo). It's certainly not seded with diacetyl, what I fear most from imported Czech stuff.

Very full gold colour, lots of Saaz aroma, and some caramelly maltiness in the background.
