I've been curious to try the Czech 'Budweiser' so I finally got a bottle, its better than the American Budweiser but not that great.

Poured from a 330ml bottle into a pilsener glass, best before 10.04.11 date.

This pours a light golden color very clear with a large foamy white head, when it goes away there is no lacing, you do get a constant stream of bubbles from the beer. The smell is crisp and nice, a little floral hops, sweet bread malt and grassy undertones. The mouth feel is as expected light and crisp with tingly carbonation. The taste is good, it has some malty notes up front with a little bitterness on the way down, although its also a little watery for my taste. Overall a decent beer very crisp and refreshing so its probably go for a hot summer day, but its too watery for my tastes. (There are several other beers I prefer over this in this style).

Not a bad beer, decent for the price I guess. Have never seen this in my area, so bought a 16 oz can when I travelled to Ottawa. Nothing out of this world, but it's ok. Didn't have the bad aftertaste that so many mid-level beers seem to have nowadays. Pretty smooth going down, decent flavor.

Pours clear deep golden beer, sparkling, with 1-finger off-white head. Distinctive sweet honey and floral smell. Clear sweet malty taste with tones of manure and nice herbal bitter finish on the other hand. Well-balanced, medium-bodied classic czech pilsener. A legend of the style.

Thanx Aaron:

Into a pilsener:

A: golden yellow body with a four finger white foamy head that rises and falls and leaves some nice speckled lightly foamy lacing gracing the sides of the pilsener, carbonation is seen rising

S: spicy hops up front, light sweetness once it warms a bit

T: balanced spicy sweetness, good for the style, smooth dry crisp aftertaste and finish

M: light to medium, sessionable - probably very good with food, adequate carbonation

O: pretty good Czech Pilsener if you like 'em, hey go for this one, I'd have it again. This is Budweiser, wow, I'm impressed - kudos to them.
