I picked this one up on a whim and in this case, there's something to be said for doing one's homework. This isn't necessarily a bad beer - it even has a somewhat refreshing quality to it - but it is incredibly average. At least with horrible beers there's something to make fun of. One area of note: the smell is kind of terrible.

look: 3.5 | smell: 3.5 | taste: 3.5 | feel: 3.5 | overall: 3.5

Appearance: Pale, golden, clear

Aroma: Hops, slight vanilla

Taste: Hoppy, slightly bitter, but refreshing and smooth, slight apple finish

Remarks: Although the flavor was pretty good overall, it's still a pale lager, which is not my favorite style

Did not score A, T, S, M at that time; disregard those scores

Bright golden color with a two finger head with medium retention and leaving laces.
Light aroma of grassy hops, fresh like recently cut, hints of malt and caramels. Later decayed,
Nice sweet malty taste, very grassy with hints of lemon and asparagus. Dry, even a bit astringent aftertaste with a nice bitterness.
Light body with a crisp carbonation.
This was much fresher than the last one I had tasted, this makes a whole lots of difference for Pilsners. This one was not metallic. I found this very well balanced and pleasant; it is a pity that the “fake” Budweiser is not as good as this one.

This is a true Pilsner beer second only to Pilsner Urquell tasted at the brewery. I really enjoy drinking this beer when I can. Too Bad it is not reeally available in America because of the trademark problem. American Budweiser has ruined the reputation of this brewery and its wonderful beer. I am looking forward to the time I can visit Budvar and taste this beer at the brewery. This beer is truely one of the best beers in its class in the world. When in Germany or the Czech Republic be sure to try one of these and you too will be a fan.

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.
