Keg at Zly Casy. Butter/yoghurt/diacetyl. A touch acidic. The crackpot ingredients were present but overall this tasted spoiled.

fresh off the plane from the brewery & pulled directly off the tank. sweet, caramelized, malty. Honey malt like a young marzen. very sweet finish.

On tap in Litomysl. Nice color and head, pleasant taste and palate.Fresh aroma.

on tap at zly casy. light amber with a lasting offwhite head; aroma of polished wooden floorboards and old spice; a little thin with some liqueur-like suggestions of chestnut; a bit messy and dirty in th finish. not a bad effort to create something unique anyway

Zlý Časy, Prága. Opálos barnás-narancsos színe van, és csak egy egészen kicsi, krémes piszkosfehér habot fejleszt. Illata malátás, gyümölcsös és virágos, édeskés és nagyon üde. Íze szintén gyümölcsösen és malátásan édes, de az üde virágos komló finom, visszafogott keserűséget és frissességet ad neki. Ugyanakkor a várt gesztenyemézet nem, vagy csal alig érezni, inkább egy fura dióhoz hasonló mellékíz kerül elő egy-egy kortynál. Tulajdonképpen nem rossz, de kicsit "össze-vissza" sör, nem igazán tudtam vele mit kezdeni, de kétségkívül érdekes.

draft at Zly Casy. orange-gold body, light haze with a fine and tall white head. acidic butter diacetyl nose, overbearing and blunt. cream and fruit rind esters are stinky, sweaty and metallic and present a case study on diacetyl blah. soft carbonation, medium body, chewy with round and smooth texture, but unpleasant to drink. honestly the herb, nuts, fruit, honey and spice character that i see other people reporting - not there for me.

(draught 0,5l) Strong herbs, hops aroma. Cloudy light brown color. Medium white head. Medium sweet, light bitter, herbs taste. Medium body, creamy texture. Bitter finish.

Another beer I had on tap at Zlý Časy in Prague. The beer had a cloudy amber-orange color with a big foamy-creamy dark off-white head with average cling and lots of retention. Its aroma featured a variety of spices including cinnamon, nutmeg, clove, and brown sugar, as well as a light earthy hops tone below. Its mouthfeel was surprisingly light and thin, with a dry body and feel, and low carbonation. It tasted somewhat sweet and fruity, but had a bitter grainy component as well.

(Draught at Pivovarsky Klub, Prague, 30 July 2011) Amber colour with frothy, off-white head. Malty, fruity nose with notes of bread, toasty malt and distinct aromas of chestnut. Malty, nutty taste with dried fruit, honey and toast. Medium body, quite sweet, with low bitterness. Interesting, and quite drinkable.

(draught) pours a hazy golden-amber colour with a frothy off-white head. aroma of treebark and honey, quite soapy, with a hint of roses and some mustiness. flavour is basically the same, very soapy and musty, with hints of nutmeg, paint thinner and pepper. medium-bodied with average carbonation.
