Bottle. Bought this because Ive never seen it sold as a single in the states. Light skunk aroma. The taste was better than I thought it would be - way less skunky than I predicted. Nice solid pilsner, probably one of the best Ive had.

11.2 oz Czechvar bottle poured into a pilsener glass. Gold in color with a disappointingly small white head that dissipates quickly, leaving only a thin film of lace. Aroma is grassy with a pale malt base. No skunk despite the green bottle. Flavor is cereal grainy with a touch of sweetness. Grassy hops and a little lemon round this pilsener out. Crisp and mostly clean on the finish. A little light on carbonation for the style. Very drinkable.

Draught. Golden color, white head. Sweet malty aroma, balanced taste. Pretty good, but perhaps just slightly too bitter.

Very strong hoppy scent. Very orange pour with negligible head. Very hoppy taste, though somewhat grainy. Definately way more taste then a "Bud". Something a bit malty in the finish. Lingering bitter aftertaste I was not impressed with.

Can: Clear yellow colour, with nice head. Aroma of hops, malts and som citric nose in the end. Flavor is almost the same here, has a smal body, easy to drink, but still a nice lager beer. Short hopy fiish. Nice

the 12 is something to behold. Go straight to the top - even with Kidney stones this beer was allowed in the hospital by doctors
