Draft. A hazy amber beerw ith a thin beige head. The aroma is sweet with notes of malt and berries. The flavor has notes of juniper berries and a light touch of malt, leading to a dry hoppy bitter finish. The body is thin.

From tap at the brewpub. Pours cloudy orange with a lacing white head. Aroma is mild citric and delicate berry fruity. Flavour is mild berry fruity with a mild acidic note. Ends mild fruity and towards dry. Couldn’t really sense the black berries here.

On tap. Slightly hazy golden with an off-white head. Has a strange artificial and synthetic fruit aroma. Medium-bodied, vague fruity blackcurrant notes and a distinctly bitter finish. If it was not for the synthetic touch this could be pretty decent. 270608

Draught. Amber colour, small head. Aroma is pine, black currant, blueberries and some grassyness. Flavour is quite much the same. A very different and weird brew, but not that bad actually.

Draught at the brwepub. Hazy deep golden, small flocculent head. Aroma of minty black currant liquor. Medium dry with some grainy malt hiding in perfumy peppermint. Just on the perception horizon there are some saaz hops. Odd? Yes. definitely. Interesting? Perhaps. Good? Not really.

Cloudy amber with medium off white head. Artificial cherry in the nose. Sweet flavor with artificial cherry and almond notes. Ends sweet.

Slightly hazy golden color, small beige head. Minty, black currant and bubblegum aroma. There is some peppermint, black currant and perhaps a bit of diacetyl. Weird.

Tap @ Purkmistr brewpub.
Pours clear golden with a small, creamy, white head. Disappears quickly. Aroma is sweet, good clear berries, light tartness and some fruity sharpness. Medium carbonation, okay mouthfeel. Sweet flavour, okay balanced between good maltiness and long berry aftertaste. Okay - much better than the cherry version.

Cloudy golden with a small white head. Perfumed floral aroma with a herbal note and some sort of green leaves. Odd sweet flavour with floral and berry notes and a harsh bitterness in the finish.

Draught at Purmistr Brewpub, Plzen-Cernice. Hazed amber with cream head. Sweet, fruity with unfortunate chemical like blackberry note, but this is probably a fruit beer prejudice emerging. Very unusual with a cloying citricity. not for me.
