I had this beer on-tap at the brewery in Budapest in a pilsner glass.
Appearance: medium golden hue with minimum haze and a finger of frothy ivory foam.
Smell: sweetly malty with a little grainy character and a little yeastiness.
Taste: malty and quite grainy with some light noble hopping and light bitterness. Not a strong beer, but not a bad one either.
Mouthfeel: medium body with a decent carbonation and creaminess.
Overall: a little bit heavy, or sweet, or something to be mega refreshing, but still nice. I would also call this more of a German pilsner than a Czech one — it lacks that hoppy bite.

Okay so this is kind of advertised as a modern new-wave pilsner so I immediately started to expect big, bold hops, but it is to me just a really fresh lezák - which is great and it is how it should be!
Not sure what kind of hops they used (smells Saaz to me) but it does remind me of the traditional recipes like they boast on the bottle - perhaps with a slightly more carbonation.
Nevertheless, it is quite good.
