rlgk (3239), Motala, Sweden Jul 21, 2006 Golden with a disappointing white head leaving after just a few seconds. Yeasty aroma with some hoppy metallic notes. Weak bready flavor. Hops taking over in the finish. Not the best czech beer...
thewolf (4156), Kolding, Denmark Jul 14, 2008 Bottle, bought @ a corner pub in Brno.<br />
Pours clear golden with a fine, medium, creamy, white head. Fine duration and light lacing. Mild aroma, some grass, apple and sweet malts. Okay mouthfeel, medium carbonation. Flavour is crisp malty, a bit of green apple and a clear, defining, hoppy bitterness to finish it off. Good one. oh6gdx (6460), Vaasa, Finland Jul 3, 2008 Bottled. Golden colour with mediumsized creamy head. Aroma is malty, slight fruityness along with some grass and slightly bread-doughy notes. Flavour is quite sweet malts along with some slight fruity notes. The end is grassy and quite mouthdrying. KnutAlbert (2466), Oslo, Norway May 29, 2008 On tap at the Czech Inn, Dublin.
Full mouth feel, grain, malt, bread.
Complex stuff. I would have liked more bitterness, but it is very fine as it is..
Lingering bittersweet finish, peppery. Glouglouburp (2113), Montreal, Quebec, Canada Apr 7, 2008 <i>Back from a Czech Republic pub-crawl this is part of my express ratings for the “typical” Světlý 11°- (Czech light Pils), Světlý 12°+ (Czech Pils), Polotmavý (Czech Amber Lagers) and Tmavý (Czech Black Lagers). Non-typical beers will receive personalized descriptions after the express ratings.</i><br />----------------------------------------------------------------<br />
<b>How: </b>Tap at Kralovstvi, Prague<br />
<b>The look: </b>Clear golden body with a medium white head<br />
<b>To me a typical Czech Světlý 12° and above is: </b>Well malted body with plenty of biscuits and cereals. Sweetness level is in the light-medium range with some honey flavours and a light caramel presence (3/4 honey, 1/4 caramel). Fruity flavour limited to a light citrus flavour. Medium carbonation. Finish is dry and moderately bitter with a light citric touch. After-taste of dry grassy/herbal hops with a light dry spiciness character.<br />
<b>This one: </b>As above, very typical and average for the style.
