Leichter Karamellmalzantrunk, der den sonst wässrigen Antrunk dominiert. Trockener Mittelteil, leicht herb, der Alkohol ist etwas zu erkennen, was nicht weiter stört. Weiterhin eher wässrig, auch die Hopfennote ist recht kpmmerlich und erliegt letztlich der Wässrigkeit. Immerhin ist es spritzig, dafür aber auch relativ langweilig. Trockener Hopfenabgang. Test vom 25.10.2007, Gebinde: Glasflasche Noten: 10,8,8,7,12,8 - 8,25

Bottle at SMÖF 2010. It poured a clear pale yellow liquid with a minimal white head. Flavour of sweet malt and earth. Smooth mouthfeel medium thick body. Decent pilsner, didn’t look to good, but fresh and easy to drink.

(draught, at the Pivni Galerie, Prague) clear golden colour, creamy white head, great lacing. aroma is a bizarre combination of earthy and floral hops, camembert and light grain. flavour has strong notes of camembert and almonds, with more earthy hops and grain. works well enough. medium carbonation and body.

bottle from Pivni Galerie. Golden yellow colour, amll head, slightly oily appearance. Malty and sweet, hoppy in the finish, which results in a bitter-sweet impression. Full-bodied and fruity.

After a massive walk with a heavy backpack, I was glad to see the sign Pivini Galerie, and glad to be drinking a cold beer, so it may have sqewed the rating a little. Poured clear golden with an inviting fluffy head. Bready spicy aroma, almost solventy. the mouthful feel reasonably full, but lacks a decent malt flavour. It has some nice saaz to finish it off, as well as a candylike aftertaste.

Bottle (from Pivni Galerie, Prague): Deep golden coloured, medium-sized, firm, but quickly diminishing and lacing white layer; sweet grainy, doughy nose, mixed with a tinge of almost citrousy, herbal hoppiness; slightly sweetish flavour, medium bodied; sweet-malty-.doughy, only slightly bitter finish. Quite well rounded, but not too tasty Special...........

Golden colour. Frothy head that dissipates fast. Banana aroma. Malty, somewhat metallic flavour. Bitter finish.

Bottle. Golden color with a white head. The taste is a sweet earthy malty body with a rather smooth finish.

An orange beer with a disappearing orange head. The aroma is dominated by hops, while the flavor is malty with a dry hoppy end.
