16oz can. Can bottom is stamped 'LOT : 22002'.
Mostly clear, straw colored body. Multi finger depth white head upon initial pour, which slowly retreats. Leaves behind interrupted webs of lacing.
Aroma of sweet toasted malt, and floral and grassy hops. Has a note close to citrus fruit.
Taste is more dull than the nose, with grain malts providing a base and the hops contributing more grassiness and a little floral. Very slight bite of bitterness at the end and into the aftertaste. Has a touch of sulfur.
Medium mouth feel. Crisp and dry finish. Excellent carbonation.
Easy drinking lager, with a low level of bitterness.

From a 16oz can, dated 06/06/22. Served in a willi becher glass.
Pours a crystal clear, super-pale straw-yellow with two fingers of fluffy white head. Retention is pretty good, leaving a thick sudsy cap and a rousable thin, tattered sheet of lacing.
Nose is dull and malty, aromas of damp grain and floral hand soap.
Taste diverges from the nose inasmuch as, rather than being dull and damp, is a bit more sharp, biscuity, flowery and at least somewhat sour/spicy. Tasting biscuit, loaf sugar and a smidge of sour, underripe peach. There’s a sour grain aftertaste.
Feel is doughy, medium-plus bodied and brightly carbonated. A bit thick on the palate.
Overall, a reasonably tasty Czech pilsner but maybe a little heavy going for my tastes and the sour aftertaste is wearying. If I had it again, it would be with chili or something similarly hearty and spicy.

Can: Poured a clear golden color lager with a large white foamy head with good retention and some lacing. Aroma of crisp cereal notes with nice floral and herbal hoppy undertones. Taste is also a great mix of crisp cereal notes with some floral and herbal hops notes with a dry finish. Body is about average for style with good carbonation. Easy drinking and very well brewed overall.

Pours hazy pale gold with smallish white head. Smells of malt and grassy herbal hop notes. First sip remembers of euro pils, not overly bitter, very light body with a soapy aftertaste.

A:
Pours crystal clear gold with pretty meh head and retention, but some. White speckled lace. (3.75)
S:
Pale malt character, Euro hop grassiness, funky dishrag, herbal. (3.75)
T:
Rich pils flavor with some floral-herbal hops bite with assertive (but soft) bitterness. (4)
M:
Fairly dry, medium bodied, crisp feel but a little more substantive than some. (4)
O:
This is a nice pils.
It is ample and crisp, refreshing and rich. It ain't much to look at but is otherwise pretty alright. The nose has a little funky raggy, pungency to it that took away from it, but it mellowed a little as it warmed and wasn't too overpowering. My theory is pungent herbal hops and maybe some sulfur from the yeast mixing together. It is very drinkable despite this and just nice and easy drinking. I'd have it again. If the nose had been a little smoother and better it would have scored a touch higher, if that had carried over to there rest and not mellowed a touch in the glass if would have dropped it a little. As is, though, a nice, solid beer. (4)
