COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Bottle conditioned; Regular. Also available in cask at 5.6% as a Winter seasonal.
This is an unpasteurised, unfiltered classic Bohemian Style Lager. It is gold in colour and has a floral aroma from the use of Czech Saaz hops. The taste is a balance between rich malt and hop bitterness which is characteristic of the style.

oh6gdx (18575) - Vasa, FINLAND - DEC 31, 2011
Bottled@my birthdaybash@Chriso. Golden colour, small white head. Aroma is fruity, bready malts, some wood and mild toasted notes. Flavour is fruits, wood, bready malts, some slight earthy and herbal notes as well. Also mild nectary sweetness. Good beer, but not sure what it’s got in common with bohemian lagers.

Bottled at oh6gdx’s birthday bash at chriso’s. Cloudy deep golden, faint head. Fruit ysoapy nose. Mid sweet with medium body and rounded mouthfeel. Soapy and minerally with honey and vegetables. Low bitterness. Fairly dull, and not all reminiscent of a Czech pilsener.

Bottle at Pat’s birthday chriso tasting, London. Pours clear, yellow-gold with a medium, white head. Dry grain and straw aroma. Medium sweet flavor, something oddly ’fishy’ in this. Lightly bitter. Light to medium bodied with fine carbonation. Dryish finish, light toasted hay. OK.

EdKing (1302) - London, Greater London, ENGLAND - DEC 3, 2011
Bottle at Pat’s birthday tasting at Chriso’s. Pale yellow colour. Nose is sourish, strange rubber smell, but taste is nice. Grassy, straw, flavoursome lager, but still a bit of that rubberiness in the aftertaste.
