Golden color with a rather large fluffy white head. A bit grassy in the aroma. Surprisingly hoppy at the finish in that czech sorta way. Sweet at the start. Medium carbonation. Enjoyable. A good compliment to scotch.

Bottle. Clear yellow with a small white head that doesn’t have much going for it. Light malt and lighter hops. Taste is sweet then a good bitterness at the end. Light to medium body with moderate carbonation. Not bad as an average beer.

Slight spicy hops aroma. Lemon yellow in color. Clean, no real flavor with a citrus aftertaste. Not bad... but I’d definitely not seek it out again.

pours a light transparant golden color with quickly disappearing head. scent is of wheat and a little hops. taste is of hops, and corn and wheat. finish is nice and smooth. I would purchase this again .

Light golden pour with white head. Tastes like a hoppier lager without the shitty aftertaste you find in most american pales. very refreshing and smooth. Light fruity notes in the head as well. Good brew.
