Very creamy, much like Boddington's or Kilkenny, except Czech. Not always easy to find on tap in the Czech Republic, but quite rewarding once discovered. Exceptional creamy head, lives up to its name in terms of its palate and smoothness. Clean, marginally bitter aftertaste. A step up from the generic pilsners of Prague.

440 ml nitro widget can, bought in Prague. Deep golden/amber colour, moderate creamy head. Pleasant but moderate fruity aroma with some malts and hops. Smooth and easy drinking, just enough hops and malts to make it a little better than "flavourless". Unpleasant metallic bitterness in the aftertaste.

    regular bitter aroma, the head is 'guinness-like' and lasts forever from about 1 finger, the feel is very broad and well-balanced and the taste is mildly bitter

    Draught. Copper coloured, creamy beige head. Citric aroma with some hoppish notes. Malty, citric and a bit papery flavour. Smooth and very plump (filling) palate. Semi-bitter finish.

    Pale maize color, nice rich head with a nitrous-style carbonation even from the can. Tends to be a bit more expensive on tap in Prague, but still about $1/pint (quite inexpensive compared to the typical Seattle pint of anything). Worth seeking out when in Prague.
