Thanks to kubrick215 for bringing this back from Czech Republic and sharing with me.

Pours a cloudy dark golden orange color with yellowish hues and a two finger frothy white head that slowly settles into a lasting ring. Spotty lacing left behind.

Slightly earthy aroma with a crisp hop presence that has a soily/earthy quality along with some sweet citrus. There's also some light fruit, pale malt and biscuit.

Medium bodied but fuller than expected with a nice crisp hop bite up front that lingers over the sweeter notes into a slightly dry finish. Dry and earthy with a decent amount of bitterness that doesn't overpower the other flavors. Hints of apple and pear along with a slight creamy presence, biscuit malt and straw. Well balanced, flavorful and easy to drink.
