NoiZe (2325) - Amersfoort, - SEP 14, 2009
Yellow colored brew. Sweet aroma, malty, grain. Flavor is sweet, malty, sticky, skunky bitterness. Not horrible, but low quality ingredients..

Nothing more than a pale lager. Limited aromas and taste. Easy going, watery and not at all interesting. Nice for warm days and bbq

Clear pale golden color with a white fluffy head. Sweet aroma. Flavour is very typical Czech in style, and thats good :-).

500 mL bottle: Appearance is golden brown with minimal white head. Aroma is of stale malt. Flavor is a bearable maltiness with no off flavors.

Bottle
The only good thing I can say about this is that it was marginally better than the last beer. Even so, much like the Cantina, 80% of it went straight down the drain. Another country tick, there is really no good reason to choose this. Even the macros give you more bang for your buck.

Aroma / Appearance - This body has some life but the result looks like fizzy ginger ale instead of beer. A stark white head is far too excitable for the quality of the beer beneath. Wet leaves, grain, and soured lemons are as bland as it gets. Imagine any Eastern European pale lager and it could fit the bill.

Flavor / Palate - Lemon and grain are as bland and forgettable as it comes. Just a second after taking a sip it fades away. There aren’t any glaring flaws (like skunk, popcorn, or other off flavors). There is just nothing. This is like a black hole of good taste in the way it turns every sip into mediocrity.

BMan1113VR (6146) - Los Angeles, California, USA - OCT 5, 2011
Bottle (country tick). Pours with a pale yellow body with hardly any white head (vanishes quick). Aromas of wet and slightly burnt dog hair. Grainy, sweet adjunct, uric acid. Even a slight ester. All sorts of mistakes. Flavors are sweet, rotten fruit, corn, and then the magically fade to some oxidized paper and nothingness. Light metal as well. Very thin with medium to low carbonation. Characterless.

dtborelli (322) - Sacramento, California, USA - SEP 17, 2011
Niksicko Pivo I have no idea if this is the proper spelling for this, but what the hell. Pours golden as opposed to straw with a deeper yellow. Two fingered white head that went away immediately. Strong odor of rice adjunct, with a pale German like yeast note. Bananas gone bad? Flavor is super thin and watery with almost no aftertaste to speak of. A little bid of cardboard? This is not really beer is it? I think I got duped into purchasing seltzer with yellow food coloring. Possibly the most boring and least offensive beer I have ever had.

Can from the Bosnian border: rainy nose with some hop bitterness. Golden color. Flavor is malty/grainy with light notes of corn. Quite astringetnt, light bitter finis, metallic, some grassy hop notes. Weak.
