Courtesy of acrdz. Clear golden body with a small white head. The nose is sugary, doughy malt, grassy hops and light flowers. The flavor is lightly sweet, lightly bitter with grassy hops, light lemon rind, dough and honey. Medium/light body is a bit thin with moderate carbonation.

Bottle green, 500 ml, 12P
Appearance: Pours bright golden colour, with mild to medium body carbonation, body is perfectly clear, no sediment, head is frothy and even a bit rocky with nice density and good lacing on the glass walls. Head is slowly decreasing to a nice small froth on the body surface.
Aroma: First of all fresh, some hoppy - fruity accent. What is characteristic of that beer is taht there is a kind of wildberry hint in aroma and strawberry. Nice pronounced grainy maltyness is at the background, creting a nice base. Some harsh bitterness and kind of slight dusty chalkyness, some flowery accents from a very interesting kind of hops. Heveing all the things that good Bohemian Pilsener should have plus the nice wildberry accent making it original and distinct among Bohemian Pilseners.
Flavour: Full rounded and satysfying taste, you can feel initially a kind of grainy - malty, essential and focused sweetness and on the top perfumy hoppy nose with citrusy - lemony and fruity wildberry hints in nose. Bitterness on palate is holdend, it focused on your tongue and binds it.
Palate: Body is medium, texture is dry, carbonation on palate is definitely lively, finish feel is aromatic, hoppy, with perfume and wild fruit hints and a bit mineral. One of the best Bohemian Pilseners I’ve had so far. Nothing into consideration those filtered and pasteurised.

11.2oz green bottle served in a pilsner glass. Poured a brilliant, pale gold with a couple of fingers of fine white bubbled head. Noble hop aroma with a slight metallic hint. Light bodied, very easy drinking. Clean flavor, some malt there, but not as much as I remember from drinking it before. Decent hop bite. Solid pilsner, good summertime drinking.

Draft in Prague. Clear golden and quick disappearing head. Medium body, sweetness and hops. Ok, nothing too special. From other reviews, this beer apparently has lost lots of its quality as of late.
