(Bottle 50 cl) Fully golden, clear and filtered. Very malty, grainy flavour and also a pronounced bitterness all the way to the palate. Nice and classical. 301204

I was browsing through my favorite store (has a great selection of beers - for Croatia), and I saw a 0.5l can of this in a cooler. Great, I think, a new beer. I started walking to the counter with one can of this, and I passed a bunch of this on the discount "aisle". I never saw how much this cost, so I took a glance. I stopped in my tracks. A 0.5l can of this cost somewhere around 35 cents(euro). I couldn’t believe my eyes. I immediately ran towards the fridge, and got 3 more. So, how did the beer turn out ? Lovely herbal/malty aroma. Very fizzy, golden colour, typical white head. Nothing special. The taste ? Well, this is where this fell short. Very watery, so, smooth I guess. Some metallic hints (I thought that this was the can, but probably isn’t). You have to strain to get some flavor from this. Maybe a bit malty, but that’s that. It had a long bitter hoppy aftertaste though. I mentioned that I bought 4 bottles, well I gave three to my classmates. 5 out of six said that this was crap. The sixth one likes K-Plus. Enough said. How can a beer have such an aroma, and such an aftertaste without having actual taste.

Tapped. Golden colour, huge white head. Typical lagerish bitter malty/hoppy aroma. Typical lager in flavour too, which mainly was malty with weak metallic hints. One of the poorer Czech beers I’ve had.

The problem with this beer isn't that it lacks interesting elements. It has bread, licorice and hop on the nose; pale malts, bread and a hint of hop on the palate. But for whatever reason, these otherwise good elements just didn't come together. It was as though the flavours neutralized each other until the beer was left with nothing to offer.
