0,5 l bottle.
Poured minimal opalescent golden with a medium creamt white head. Caramel, malt, light honey, mild sourish yeast and some floral-straw hop in the aroma. Not bad. Easy bodied but not watery texture, light caramel and malt, some honey with sourish bottom.yeasts, balanced floral hop in the finish. Nice and easy drinkable everyday beer.

sampled both on tap, for the first time at slunce ve skle 2008 and bottled, most recently a few weeks ago. golden, full-bodied, gentle saaz aroma, some peachiness in the malt character and a quite bitter finish. feels a little dumbed-down for a kocour beer but not soulless

Draft @ Kulovy Blesk. Comes as Kocour Svetly Lezak 12. Pours cloudy golden with a small creamy head and lacings. yeasty and herbal grassy nose. Slightly well know rubber and leather flavor. Phenolic kocour like. Medium bodied. Dry and crisp. Ok.

Bottled. A hazy dark golden beer with a thin white head. The aroma has notes of butter and malt as well as a lighter note of caramel. The flavor is sweet iwth notes of straw, malt, and citrus fruits, leading to a dry buttery finish. Thanks yespr for sharing.

Bottle. Hazy light brown, frothy but not sustaining head. Aroma is lots of hops and malty graininess but also unfortunately some acidity. The sourness fades somewhat with time and without it the beer would smell really good, with its grainy, nutty, herbal and peppery profile. Low carbonation, taste unfortunately doesn’t manage to excel the nose - the nuttiness and hop-aroma are the highpoints for this one, the bitterness could be more pronounced and the lowpoints are the slightly watery body and acidity. I guess this one might have been infected but the taste is not too well balanced either way.

Výborný, ostatně jako všechno z Varnsdorfu. KOcour je jistota desetinásobku.

Earthy aroma, very spicy (pepper, herb), a little butter. Flavor is strongly bitter and with almost no sweetness. Slight diacetyl. A little thin. Great head, frothy and dense also. Bracingly bitter. I like that but others may not. Quite fresh. Good Lord almighty do I love a fresh unfiltered pils.

Botella, grazias al señor yespr. Unclear golden. Grain bit sweet caramel aroma. Thin mouthfeel. Herb bitter grain malty like flavour.
