Tap at Brūstok 2026 with the Prague tasting crew. Murky orange-golden body, no head. Lovely mango aroma, light passion fruit. Mango-driven lean, light taste, quite clean, with a lasting sourness! Nice and summer! For those looking for more beer characteristics at all times it will suck I guess, but for me it hit the spot perfectly. If I see it this summer, will get it again.

Tap at Brūstok 2026, with Gurthnar of course! Should be this. Murky purple-red body with a pinkish head. Bit of blackberries and light lactic and jammy notes in the aroma, bit beety too. Lean, dry, bit empty blackberry-driven taste, clean, lean and tart. Nice summery fruity beer while it's still technically winter!

Tap at KMP 5 days ago or so. Chmelínek #5, don't see how it's different from #4 or #2, might alias, might split out. Anyway. Clear golden body, lasting off-white head. Herbal hoppy aroma. Lean, dry smooth herbal taste, dry finish, ending a bit roughly bitter. Okay.

Deep golden with the lightest amber hints, almost perfectly transparent. Average sized, compact white head showing good enough retention and lacing. Average to moderate intensity in the aroma: a delicate cerealy base with light honey followed by herbal/grassy and slightly spicy/prickly lemony hop notes. Taste notes follow the aroma closely, with less swetness than suggested by the aroma. The cereal, lightly breadish feel is just a base for a vividly grassy/herbal, quite bitter per style feel, with a nice complement of fresh, slightly prickly/cedary hoppiness. Pretty light bodied as obvious with slightly below average, fine carbonation. Feels very easily drinkable, clean and lively enough. Just what i expect in a vycepni. Very nice.

Tap at KMP. Hazy golden body, white head. Herbal, flowery, bit yeasty, dry aroma. Soft, sweetish, lightly grainy taste, DMS, some light bitterness.... almost there but not really. Needs some work.
