Weird beer. Base seems to be a Czech dark lager, with some chemical berries added. Not very good.

A 500ml bottle by the courtesy of djoeye. Frothy white head slowly fading over clear golden body. Faint lacing down the glass. Bread malty aroma, semi-dry. Mild caramel and herbal hops to the taste buds. Discreet hop bitter ending. Oily palate. Soft in the mouth. Shared with Frau Eva. Fine match to our chicken food (Tromsø 11.05.2014).

Bottle @ Setka Pub, Poznań. Pours clear golden with small white head. Clear atoma of hops, malt and yeast. Watery, mildly hoppy flavour, with estery notes. Mild, bitter aftertaste. Like a beer for professional drivers. Gee, got it by accident. Well, just another Czech rating but nothing more than that.
