Pivovary Staropramen s.r.o. Staropramen – Czech Pilsener at 5% ABV

Pivovary Staropramen s.r.o. Staropramen Czech Pilsener at 5% ABV (C$3.79 at Willow Park Wine & Spirits, 500 ml, best before 31-Mar-2017, acquired 19-Jul-2016, reviewed 19-Jul-2016)

Appearance: clear straw with one fat finger of rocky white head, excellent retention and patchy lacing. (4/5) Aroma: grass, pale grainy malt. (5/10) Taste: moderate sweet, light bitter. (5/10) Light body, moderate carbonation, crisp lightly bitter and slightly metallic finish. (3/5)

Meh. It’s a straightforward Světlý without a lot to distinguish it. Easy drinking but starts to get a bit sweet with an adjunct flavour as it progresses.  Can’t think of any reason why I’d ever go looking for another one. (11/20)

5.5/10 #ryansbooze ryansbooze.com
