was pleased when the giantess served this. very soft, as you´d expect of moravian pilsner it doesn´t hit you over the head with hops but you notice them more the further you go

i’m assuming this is the 11 degree. excellent starobrno style pilsener which proves that good things can come out of jihlava. clear gold with a nice head that gradually forms icefloes. malty and buttery with peppery, quite bitter finish.

Golden coloured. Grassy hop aroma. Medium bodied, dry with nice oily saaz hop aroma, and balanced bitter finish. A very good pilsener.

draft. medium gold / brass shimmering body with a fine white head. toasty medium sweet chewy / sticky / toffee munich or vienna malt character bit of flavor. corn-like lingering oily finish. but overall it’s frothy and chewy and seems thicker and bigger than 11 degrees, but it’s put together quite well.

Tap at my university’s students’ club. This afaik replaced Pilsner Urquell on tap. I’ve heard from someone that it was really Urquell in Jihlava kegs, but I seriously doubt it now because the kegs had the importers’ stickers that clearly said that this was the 4.7% Ježek.

This poured a nice yellow-golden colour with a medium sized thick creamy white head, very lively carbonation. A nice malty nose, with nice herbal-lemony hopiness. The taste was remarkably pleasant. A superb honey-fruity maltiness, with some pleasant background herbal hopiness that mixed with the maltiness nicely. A bit salty, and a weak weak touch of metal, but all in all, a very, very good pils. If this was really Pilsner Urquell, this was the oddest (and the best) one I’ve ever had (if it was, I’m rerating it with this review here). Anyway, deserves the high score.

Another beer I had on tap at Zlý Časy in Prague. The beer had a dark gold-amber color, was mostly clear, and had a big creamy white head with great cling and retention. The subtle aroma featured a mix of spices including nutmeg, brown sugar, and a bit of wheat hops. The taste was sweet with some spicy tones, and a bit of wheaty and grainy bitterness. It had low carbonation, a lighter body, with a wet, creamy mouthfeel.

Yeast version at Kulovy Blask, Prague. Cloudy golden with a lasting white head. Malty aroma with grassy and herbal hops. Sweetish malty flavour with a fruity touch. A hint of baking yeast.
