This is one of our limited edition brews. Honey colored lager infused with the famous Czech Saaz hops. Full hop flavor and aroma while maintaining a balanced hop bitterness.

Had this as part of a sampler and then bought a six to take home.

This came to the table with a 1 finger white head that fell quickly enough and left just a little lace. The smell was very faint but had a hint of biscuit malt and just a hint of piney/grassy hops. The taste was very much like any other pils and was a clean, crisp taste that had a little bit more pronounced hop bite than say a BMC would but not much more.

This is very much like a upscale macro lager in my opinion. It's very non offensive but doesn't really challenge the palate either

My parents brought this beer back in a mixed 6pck from their trip down south. The beer poured a clear golden with thin white head that is not leaving any lace. The scent is nondescript. The taste is slightly bread you. The mouthfeel was lighter in body with subtle carbonation. Overall it's ok.
