Unclear almost cloudy orange golden with a creamy head. Lots of basement notes, butter, diacety, vanilla, minerals, lemon zest, slightly metallic, bready, grainy. Dry zesty bitterness, buttery vanilla sweetness. Medium bodied, oily texture, soft carbonated, dry buttery vanilla zesty bittersweet finish. Superb.

Crisp, grassy and slightly herbal with some hay, earthiness, hints of butter and diacetyl, some bitterness and floral vibes. Crushable.

Med-thin boby, non-watery. Rather high carbo. Med-high bitter, low sweet, quite dry, but with med-light bready malty base. Medium grassy herbal hops character on top. Overall clean feeling, elegant, classic. Very good.

Tap at Galerka. Hazy pale golden body, thick off-white head with medium retention. Bit sulfury, bready, yeasty, pleasantly herbal, vaguely tart fresh aroma. Highly carbonated, highly bready, malty taste, herbal, low resin, good bitter kick, pretty clean, fresh, low yeasty, sulfury touches which don't really detract at all. If it was just slightly less carbed, and didn't trigger burping immediately, I'd enjoy it immensely, but it's still a highly, immensely impressive 7°.

Tap at Festival minipivovaru na Hrade. Dull oxidated empty aroma and flavour. Watery, boring. Slightly diacetyly, with less hops than that and no malt. Meh.

Draught Deep amber brown beer with a good stable yellow, frothy head. Again sulphur, toast, molasses, straw, bread. Dark brown bread with a small hop superposition. Sulphur, wood, chocolate. Medium bodied, slick, quite carbonated. Nice.

Draught at the Praha Nalevarna pub Rusty, almost clear beer with a steady yellowish head. Fresh toasted malts with an ever so slightly smoky touch. Sweet, malty, but with a nice bitter hoppy finish. Straw, toast, and lots of malts, and again somewhat sulphury. Light body, bitterbite even fiery in the MF. Nice, the kind of beer that makes you go back. And I prefer the sulphur to the diacetyl I was fearing.

Draught at the Praha Nalevarna pub Very thick yellowish head, stable, over dull, copperish amber beer. Fresh malts, smelling for all the world as hanging over a fermenting vessel, sulphury. Extremely fresh, just finished beer as from the lagertank. Malts, toasted & pale, crisp, toasted cereals with a dash of hops. Light, well-carbonated. Light, but surprisingly good.

On tap at Pivovarská nalévárna v Soukenické. Pours murky dark brown with a beige head. Dry, dark caramel malts and dry grass on the nose. Flavour has dry caramel, straw, dried grass. Excellent.
