Tap at Maly pivo. Medium body, medium carbo. Moderate grainy malty flavour, a bit raw, but okay. Med-light grassy herbal hops character, a bit flowery. More on the malty side though. Good but not great.

Tap at Beertime Prague. Almost clear golden body, laaaasting thick off-white head. Tropical, berry aroma, punctured by a sharp herbal note, grapefruit, light onion. Sweetish taste, caramelly, sugary, bit herba and citric, bitterish finish. Not ideal.

Tap at Pivstro. Lightly hazy dark amber body, thick off-white head. Creamy, mildly buttery tropical-peachy aroma, mildly floral. Dry taste, citric, mildly socky, herbal, lightly tart, some malty touches, peach notes, bitterish finish. A mess that manages to create some sense as a whole, even if it's flawed.

Tap at Beertime. Med-thin body, medium carbonation. Medium bitterness, med-light juicy sweetness. Lots of fresh fruity hops character, citrusy, tropical. Tasty, very good, easy drinking. Not as cereal as most NEs.

Tap at Černá ruka. Lightly hazy golden body, off-white head. Citric, orange notes in the aroma, light maltiness. Bitter orange and floral notes in the taste, clean malty backbone, lightly bitter finish. Not identifiable as a CZ hop-only beer and that's extremely respect-worthy. Very good stuff!

Tap at Beer and Friends. Thin body, med-light carbonation. Med-high bitterness, light sweetness, quite dry. So far so good, even tho it could use more bubbles. The real bad thing here is that the hops character kinda took a vacation. It is present with moderate tangerine, gooseberry and winey, light tropical and grassy flavours. It is not bad actually, just that the commercial description made me expect more. Overall good but not great. Easy drinking.
