4.9 AROMA 9/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 10/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 20/20My favorite beer of all time. After living in Prague for a while, it became necessary to make a pilgrimage to Ceske Budejovice, where it’s brewed. We missed the tour but got to have some of the freshest, best-tasting beer I’ve ever had. Crisp, refreshing, purely enjoyable. ’Czechvar’ is available in the US, and it just doesn’t seem the same. Next time you’re in central Europe, though, seek out the Budejovicky Budvar: guaranteed to make you think twice about all those Belgian beers you’ve been paying extra money for back home.

Láhev 500 ml. Po nalití silné aroma chmele kde je cítit lehký sladový závan. Pěna je bílá, jemná a vysoká, středně držící. Pivo je zlaté až oranžové čiré barvy. Chuť piva připomíná sladké oříšky doprovázené jemnou hořkostí. Pivo je dobře pitelné a zahání žízeň.

Huge bubbles accompany this gold pilsner. Yeast and hops in the nose, although the yeast is less prevalent in the taste, which is primarily hops. Light bitter finish

Czechvar version.
A - Pours a brilliantly clear golden brass color with 1 1.5 finger white head that melts into nothing.
S - Sweet grain, apple, mild grassy hops, clean yeast.
T - Sweet malt, corn, mild dry grass hops, a touch of lemon on the sides of the tongue.
M - Low carbonation, slick, flat finish.
Not sure how old this is. Overall less than expected. The low carbonation and finish was a let down. I would love to try this on tap in Prague.

3.8 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 15/20
Pours clear gold with a short white head....classic look.
Faint green bottle skunk, grain malt, sweet aroma.
Taste is bready, a little corn, malty...very soft and palatable.
Fresh bottle, but a tad lightstruck....
Too bad, because otherwise it’s a very pleasant, creamy, smooth beer.
Still, high marks for what I sense from it...love to have one at the source.

Good pilsener beer. Not too bitter, but with a more pronounced taste than common pilzeners. Good to drink on a hot day.
