3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
UPDATED: NOV 12, 2011 Tap at Czech and Slovak House, NW6. This beer varies enormously depending on freshness and serving method (the bottle I’d give nothing like this rating) - here it is fresh and has nice grassy hoppy nose, full malty background and long bitter finish - complex without aggressive dryness/bitterness.
2.6 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20
A bit of malts and a bit of yeast in the taste, but with the hops coming out on top of them. A yeasty, buttery aroma. Clear light amber colour, minimal white head. Rich and complex in taste for the style, however it doesn’t exactly cater to my taste buds, nor to my aromatic preferences. (Bottle)
4.4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 19/20
The one and only - on tap from a tank that is (and only in Prague, Pilsen and Brno). Had quite some years on this one ... definitely the best of the mass production.Love this beer and it’s bitter taste which I can’t find in any other beer. Bottled and canned isn’t that awesome.
2.1 AROMA 2/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 9/20
Pours translucent gold small quickly disappearing head. Aroma typical of pilsner. Smooth going down with a sudden bitterness at the end but not overpowering
3.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 13/20
Tasted from bottle into lager glass. Transparent golden color with creamy, long-lasting head. Very light color and body but nonetheless complex. Noble Saaz hops yield a wonderful subtle spice. Nice round mouthfeel, not overly carbonated. Soft and spritzy. The first and foremost of pilsners, against which all others are measured.
3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20
UPDATED: FEB 5, 2012 500ml bottle. Aroma of hops and spices with a good golden appearance, taste was also pleasing with sweetness and citrus flavours followed by a medium biterness. Good finish to a good beer.
3.4 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
Bottle 33cl. Amber colour with off-white head that dissapears quickly. Aroma is malted, herbal, cereal, floral hopped. Taste is medium bitterness. On palate results a medium body beer, with good carbonation. Final is bitter. A very enjoyable beer.
