2.8 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 1/5 OVERALL 11/20
Draught (nitro-dispensed) at Gol, Olomouc. Creamy golden, rich airy head. Aroma of hay and sweat. Medium sweet, light on butterscotch.Medium bodied with creamy rounded mouthfel. There’s butter, sweat and hay. fairly sweet and pleasantly hoppy, but the nitrogen kills the life and it ends up sloppy and dull.

2.9 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20
Keg (Vltava, Helsinki)
Orange, thick tight persistent head. Woody malty aroma - smells like an antique shop, even a little dusty. Soft carbonation, creamy mouthfeel. Taste is sweet malt and nuttiness, but that falls away leaving only a dry nuttiness for the finish. On warming up, it smells hoppier and bocky and there’s even some honey.
3.7 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
Draught. Dark golden copper colour, huge creamy head, lacing. Hoppy bitterish nose with soapy hints. Wheaty, creamy and honeyish flavour. Very pleasant beer, though the aroma could be better...

Draught
Clear chestnut brown, tight creamy white head. Sweetish yeatish aroma. Some hoppy notes. Light to medium-bodied. Sweetish malty, woody, slightly grassy hoppy aftertatse. Easy to drink and as such, a good session Czech.
2.9 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20
(Draught@Vltava, Helsinki) Light amber color with a huge, silky, lacy nitro head. Very mild aroma with some malt and woody notes. Caramely-malty, slightly sweet, flowery-hoppy flavor with some lingering bitterness. Light to medium-bodied, very smooth and creamy mouthfeel. A decent, creamy and smooth, but not very interesting Czech. A toned-down version of Staropramen Velvet.
1.8 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 7/20
An attempt at a nitrokeg beer that lets them down. The usual lemony hop from Litovel is absent in this smooth, tasteless and cloying beer. They should stick to making classic lagers, they're much better at it. (Draught at Gastro, Sumperk)
