Bottle, courtesy of Dedollewaitor. A clear, pale amber beer with a small, off-white head. There’s some buttery notes in the aroma, along with cellar, caramel malts and a fruityness. Sweet flavor with pale malts and caramel. Some fruityness and a decent bitterness. Medium body, quite dry. Short, bitter finish. A quite drinkable one, but too much on the sweet side. Far from bad though, just mediocre. 110319

bottle. drinkable beer with dry hoppy taste, nice head and color and long palate.

Bottle. Golden colored beer with a white head. Hoppy aroma. Hoppy grassy flavor with a quite bitter finish.

As soon as the bottle opened I smelled skunk: green glass bottle pulled from the back of the florescent lit cooler. Light tan, foamy, sudsy head that setteled out quick and no lace. Color is a clear medium amber with the occassional random bubble rising. Aroma is malt tinged skunk. Flavor is metallic, a bit sweet, a little tang and bitterness + skunk. Finish is like flavor Body is ok, perhaps a tad watery with good carbonation. Finish is like flavor, of medium length. Not a session.

bottle from Galerie Piva, Prague. Clear golden colour, large white head. Solid malty base, rather full-bodied, with some herbal-grassy hops in the lingering finish. A good pale lager which doesn’t have much "Bohemian" character.
