Bottled: Malty (caramel) nose with some hints of hoppiness, golden colour; quite smooth, the sweetish malty taste dominates; shy, but distinct bitter-aromatic aftertaste; a bit bland, but not unpleasant ! NOTE: This bohemian Lager is not brewed by the world famous Budvar Brewery (founded 1895 by czech citizens of Budweis and still today in the hands of the czech state) but by the Budejovicky Mestansky Pivovar (founded by german citizens of Budejovice/Budweis 1795 and now a private company) !

(bottle) golden to bronze colour with a small but lasting white head. Hoppy aroma with a touch of honey. Malty start with a soft hoppy and bitter finish. OK.

Pour is a deep red with no head. Aroma is...oh no...skunk. Flavor is honey gone bad, if that can happen. Not much to this one. Leaves and awful taste at the back of the throat. Pretty bad and watery all around. Stick to pilsners my Czech brothers!

Bottled. Dark brown colour with brownish beige head, leaves lacing. Sweet aroma of caramel and also hints of honey and a bit roast. Sweetish fruity and caramelly flavour with notes of roasted malt. Not much aftertaste.

Roasted aroma. Brown with red tint. Flavor of roasted malt, but one dimensional and not much flavor at all. Low ABV but alcohol is present in the taste. Don’t bother with this beer.
