Beautiful golden color, very nice hoppy aroma, but unfortunately very thin.

ToolHead (240) - Frederiksberg, DENMARK - JUL 5, 2004
33 cl. bottle. Served in generic lager glass. Golden, smallish head. Nicely bitter and refreshing. A decent interpretation of a Czech pilsener.

ante (3375) - Stockholm, SWEDEN - MAY 21, 2004
Pale golden, big white head. Slightly grassy but thin nose. Thin body and flavour. Watery finish. Where did the name Pivo came from???

PetetheMeat (619) - Hove, DENMARK - MAR 1, 2004
Light golden, white head lasting longer than usual for a carlsberg. Flavour dominated by hoppes (saaz?). Some sweetness. Faintly metallic. lasting bitterness. Overall fair taste considering low ABV.

I had hoped that Carlsberg had done better with this beer. Where is the Saazer hops?

Very boring. Says on the bottle they used saazer-hops to make it a czech-style pilsener. Though, the aroma is missing. Only some metallic notes was discovered. The bitter and hoppy notes lack too. Nice pilsener, below average, but not nearly as interesting as they tried to make it.

Carlsbergs attemp to make a czech beer. Loser of the Carlsberg Beer election 2003. Alright as a pilsner but nothing more than that!
