Had it at 5.6% ABV. Slightly hazy amber pour with a stable white head. Aromas of malt, (sweet) citrus, honey, sourdough. Taste is malt, honey, rye, some pepper and a slightly sour finish. Not bad overall.

Tap at Sladovna, with Adam V. Hazy deep golden-amber body, off-white head. Yeasty and lightly buttery aroma, slightly citric, mostly herbal hops, funky but not terribly so
Bit fruity, stone fruit, malty taste, bit bready, lightly slick, low herbal hops, not great but well-rounded. I'm okay with it for C standards.

No trace of anything I could call beer but it's refreshing.

Did they even give me the correct beer? Mug glass, tastes like a lager too. Thin body, med carbo. Barely med bitter, med-light sweet. Med-light green apple is the defining part of character here, very little else present. Bad.

0.5l bottle. Cloudy orange gold with a big off-white head. Aroma of sweet bready malts, caramel, kind of stale bread though? or straw? Taste is the same sweet and bready malts, kinda stale, straw, some caramel, grains, light bitter hop finish. Medium bodied.
This bottle is a few days past its BBD (bought online so I didn't know), obviously not at its best. Something seemed a little off about it but hard to describe, I don't think it's diacetyl or butterscotch as others have mentioned in the past. Perhaps one to re-rate in the future.

From tap at Přístav 18600, Prague, 27.07.25. Clear golden. White head and lacing. Fine aroma and taste of pilsner malt, grains, succade and mellow meadowy hops. Very good and drinkable!

Medium to darkish amber, slightly cloudy but still transparent through light. Average sized white head, rather compact, good retention and a bit of lacing. Super caramelly aroma (plus hints of honey) with a background of red berries and not neglectable (though not unbearable) diacetyl. Not really bad on the overall, good intensity. Taste notes as per aroma; diacetyl a tad too strong to be ok, but most of all not very precise/defined, with a bit too much (slightly sticky) sweetness in finish/aftertaste. As for other cvikov beers, still somehow holds despite the flaws. Light to medium body, average carbo, relatively easy to drink with a bit of soft feel to it. Okeish on the overall.
