Huge thanks to quack-duck for that one! Bottle looks simple but good. Beer in the glass with a nice small head. Fresh hoppy aroma. Starts mild, spicy-hoppy, mild bitter notes, light sourish touch. Spicy-malty finish, milder hoppy notes. Light metallical. Okay.

Huge thanks to quack-duck for that one! Can looks simple but good. Beer in the glass with a nice head. Starts mild, malty, spicy. Fine herbal notes as well. Mild sweetness. Finish well balanced, fine malty-spicy. Quite drinkable. Nice one!

Lahev (Díky do jezera!): Clear, deep golden, medium-sized creamy and stable white head, both buttery-malty and dry grassy nose; pretty dry bitter and mildly sweet flavour, empty MF, at least pretty light bodied; shorter dry bitter-grassy finish, balancing malt hardly detectable. Bohužel neuspokojivé pivo...

Z plechovky (Danke, pane profesore!) : Golden, mid-sized and slowly collapsing loose white head, moderate sweet-bitter aroma of spicy Bohemian (?) and herbal hops, pale malt well detectable underneath; medium bodied, very soft; lingering soft Saazy and pale malty finish. Well balanced stuff, kind of an Imperial Bohemian Pils! Klobouk dolů! Jeden z nejlepších slovenských ležíaku...

EIne Dose, die schon länger bei mir lagert und endlich einmal verkoset wird. Allerdings ist es auf ganzer Länge eine Enttäuschung. Es hat einen flachen Körper, der sehr an alte durchweichte Karamellzuckerl erinnert und einen Abgang, der Richtung Käse geht. Dazu ein paar sehr chemische Gras- und Butternoten. Industriebier at its worst.
