Logs for beers from this brewery

They insisted this was unfiltered, although it was crystal clear. They had both varieties so I'll have to try them side by side at some point, if I can. Rich, cereal-uric pilsner flavor, no sweetness, and a bracingly bitter finish. May be the top Czech pilsner I've had so far.
Bitter, but not as clean and clear as I remember from Prague.
Bottle at Home
Way more bitter in Prague

Crisper and tastier than American macrobrew crap, but par for the course with European macrobrews.
Bottle at Home
Crisp, grassy pilsner. I didn't have the cleanest of palates, but it sure seemed pleasant. Would love to try under better circumstances.
Bottle at Work
Sadly, this bottle was clearly skunked. Perhaps it's best just to have Pilsner Urquell in its native country.
Bottle at A Friend's
Skunked.
Bottle at Home
This is more understated than the Budweiser Budvar I had, but also more consistent down to the bottom of the glass.
This seems a fairly normal wheat beer. It open, floral notes. There might be a bit of citrus zest in the scent.
Not bad, mildly bitter pilsner.
