On tap at BEERTIME.pub. Pours dark brown with a beige head. Roasted malt and cacao on the nose. Flavour has semi-sweet roasted malt, some cacao. Not a fan of the sweetness here.

On tap at Galerie Piva. Pours clear blonde with a white head. Tons of dry grass and straw on the nose. Flavour has plenty of dry herbal grass, crisp cracker malts. Very nice.

Tap at Galerie piva. Bit hazy golden body, off-white head. Bit yolky and herbal aroma, rustic in a good way. Fuller bodied but clean malty-wise lightly bready, nice herbal hoppy profile, low-medium bitterness building up. Ooh, Čestmir has upped their lager game!

Tap at Ochutnavkova pivnice. Thin body, low carbonation. Dramatically lacking bubbles. Med-high bitterness, med-light sweetness. Moderate juicy dank hops character, citrusy, berries, fruits generally. Overall a bit boring, but ok.

Auch dieses war ein gemütliches Gründonnerstagsbier.
Es ist ein fein gehopfes 🪴 Lager, das seine tiefe Süffigkeit halbwegs halten kann.
Es ist nicht so harmonisch wie andere IPL, aber durchaus trinkbar.

Bottle kindly shared by Marko. Pours dark brown with an off-white head. Nose is booze, sweet malts and light hazelnut, a touch of grains. Taste is sweet again, with notes of chocolate, hazelnut, malts and light booze, but fairly well contained. Light to medium bodied with soft carbonation, drinks below the ABV.

Bottle kindly shared by Marko, thanks! Pours semi-opaque golden with a thicc white head. Nose is the usual coconut character from Sabro, but actually there’s more to it; nice grassy and lightly bitter layers as well. Taste is lightly fruity, that coconut touch again somewhat bitter, but it’s more on the sweeter side. Light bodied with average carbo, easy to drink and super refreshing. Nicely done.

Tap at PB Festival. Clear, deep golden pour with white head. It's bursting with tropical fruity notes both in aroma and taste with none to little bitterness. Light body, low to average carbonation. Not too complex, but the Ekuanot was showcased nicely.
