Cloudy chestnut. Rustic nose, but in a toasty kind of way. Has some farmy complexity. Very toasty character, almost burnt. Pretty cool, actually, as an assertive take on the concept. Finishing dry and abrasively toasty.

Cloudy yellow. Some head. Big aroma with lots of footy, stank yeast/pedio and banana. Rustic - has some good farmy notes with slight dusty yeast and a fair bit of banana. Good example - has just enough acidity late.

Bottled (BB 02/2010, alc. 4.9%). Courtesy of bierkoning, ty Edo! My first beer from this brewery. Hazy orange yellow color, good white creamy head. Banana dominates the aroma, some subdued bubblegum and citrusy tartness. Less banana in the flavor: citrus, wheat and then spices in the finish. Robust body for 4.9% beer.

Bottle: Straw golden coloured, smaller, quickly diminishing white head; robust sweet-malty, buttery nose, underpinned by aromatic hops; robust bitter-sweet flavour, solid malty base; distinctive lingering Saaz hops (žatecky chmel) in the bitter-sweetmalty finish. A great franconian-bohemian Pilsener........(pivo čislo 2000)

(bottle) Hazy, light-orange colour with a rocky, slightly off-white foamy head. Sweet, yeasty and wheat-accented aroma with banana, muscat and a strong but clovy note. Sweet flavour, light to medium bodied with an almost viscid mouthfeel. Wheaty, a bit restrained fruity taste; slim, but refreshing moderately fruity finish with yeasty bitterness and clovy spice.
