Bought at the Supermarket in Olomouc (Moravia, Czech Republic).
-Dark amber color. More or less transparent. 3 mm foam head and it leaves traces. Lots of bubbles heads.
-Not a huge smell. Hints of citrics.
-Pilsener bitterness. Average taste.
-Carbonation felt after a while. Leaves bitterness in the tongue after.
Average taste for being a Czech Pilsener. It is okay but I had better ones.

Although it says "Premium" on the label, this brew would hardly qualify as such ... the place where it is brewed would also not suggest any kind of ritzyness of highbred elegance, being in the heart of a (former) coalminer's district ... it is therefore not far fetched to believe Ostravar to be a blue collar favorite, and such is the taste of this brew: rather malty, heavy bodied, slightly bodgy with a complete lack of the smoothness of the great Czech lagers ....
On another note Ostravar might have gained some notoriety from the fact of having been included in one of the Martina Jacova (aka Kyla Cole a Slovakian top nude model) pictorials ...then again, with Kyla Cole I would even drink a Bud light ....

Brown 500ml bottle best before Sept 2007, drank on a cold and wet evening in Feb 2007.
Poured into my small Budweiser Budvar tasting glass (0.2 litre), it looks good, clean, pale golden with a good white head. Looks like a lager, which is what it should look like.
Hops and some citrus aromas came up my nose.
Good smooth tasting beer, a good example of a light European pilsner. A slight harshness, which gives it the edge over most pilsners that I've tried.
Do lagers to have any mouthfeel? No not really and this is no exeption to that rule.
This is an OK lager and I would have another in preference to quiet a few other Euro fizz beers. The brewery may well be owned by Inbev, but the beer is not bad.

Pale golden color, medium carbonation, modest white head.
Smell malty with faint herbal accent. Nothing special.
Start a bit spritzy, body slender with malts predominant, hops and fruity yeast appear in the middle and grow stronger towards finish. Mouthfeel crisp and clear. Finish dry and hoppy. Aftertaste bitter with sweetish note.
Not a great beer, but an enjoyable one. Worth a try.

500ml brown bottle, BB 23/10/06.
A: dark golden hue with great clarity and coming with a frothy white cap sustaining very well; the body is slightly too fizzy.
S: toasty-grainy (almost like corn) maltiness balanced with very mild and soft spicy, almost freshly-mown and sweetish-lemony hops (Zatec). Not bad, but slightly too timid compared to most other bottled Czech Pilsners I've tried.
T: a toasted malty palate gradually yields a bitter-sweet and increasingly dryish hoppy flavour; slightly corn-like taste hides at the back; medium-length aftertaste of some bitter hops and pretty clean finish.
M&D: lively on the palate due to abundant fizz, and the body is so very light, added by a thirst-quenching dryish hoppy aftertaste in the end. But, on the balance, for a 5.0% pale lager/lezak the weight is not felt and the body is overly thin; the palate seems to be dominated by hop-extract, hence the lack of weight, to my best guess. Only the dryness at the tail provides some compensation... an O.K. beer it is.
