bottle from local Russian supermarket. My version was brewed by Pivovary Lobkowicz. Clear pale golden yellow, tall and creamy white head. Shy malty background, light and elegant, with nice Saazy hops, shy hints of butter. Resiny-grassy hoppy flavours. Smooth and velvety carbonation. Nothing wrong here, an easy drinking simple Czech lager.

Plastic bottle from local Russian supermarket. Golden colour, fluffy white head. Malty start with some bitter hops and a herbal overal character. Not bad!

2l PET bottle. Produced in the Czech Republic for a Russian supermarket chain in Germany. Clear deep golden colour with an amber touch. Soapy-malty nose. Full-bodied, solid malty background with some hoppy bitter flavours and a touch of roasted (burnt?) malt shy hints of caramel. The hops are not as aromatic as in normal Nova Paka beers, they seem more uncontrolled and rough. A wild beer, but not bad at all. Hoppy-bitter finish.

bottle. Nearly amber colour, medium-size head. Hoppy character with a solid and very pleasant maltyness which results in a lovely bitter-sweet character. Typical Czech lager, really lovely.

Smell - weak, hops. Foam - thin, bit soft, bit watery. Taste - weak bitterness, weak carbonation, easy drinking, but kind of meh. Cheaper beers with better taste.

1500ml pet bottle provided by djoeye. Low beige head, misty dark brown coloured body, clingy lacing on the glass. Rather vague smell of sweet prunes. Moderate taste of dried fruits and toffee. Drying and slightly roasted short ending. A bit thin on the swallow. Average stuff. (Shared with Finn and djoeye, PivotekaH7, Tromsø 30.06.2018).
