on tap at vinarna hrozen, plzen. steady golden, light honeyed weet-bix aroma, faint leathery touch of honey which just dulls any hop character this might have otherwise had

Appearance: Amber like brew , random large sparkle with medium white head that was reduced to light fizz.
Nose: Clean aroma of organic honey , light flower hints followed.
Flavor/Palate : Medium bodied , honey with gentle green bitterness. Grassy middle with metallic bite. Good balanced honey accented beer. It is there but Bohemian hops made it extra dimension.

Jun 18, 2008 Piwo o słabym zapachu. Piszą że miodowe ale mało czuć ten miód. Jak dla mnie za mało słodu (podobno nie słodzą tylko dają sam miód). Za bardzo gazowane dlatego taka ocena a nie inna.

Apr 7, 2008 Back from a Czech Republic pub-crawl this is part of my express ratings for the “typical” Světlý 11°- (Czech light Pils), Světlý 12°+ (Czech Pils), Polotmavý (Czech Amber Lagers) and Tmavý (Czech Black Lagers). Non-typical beers will receive personalized descriptions after the express ratings.
----------------------------------------------------------------
How: Bottle at U Radnice, Prague
The look: Clear blonde body with a small white head
To me a typical Czech Světlý 12° and above is: Well malted body with plenty of biscuits and cereals. Sweetness level is in the light-medium range with some honey flavours and a light caramel presence (3/4 honey, 1/4 caramel). Fruity flavour limited to a light citrus flavour. Medium carbonation. Finish is dry and moderately bitter with a light citric touch. After-taste of dry grassy/herbal hops with a light dry spiciness character.
This one: As above but with a simpler honeyed-cereals body and lacking on the hops front.
