For a beer that has a Czech Pils moniker, it has a heck of a lot of adjunct lager character!
Head retention is pretty weak and the beer delivers a nose that is chocked full of vegetal sweetness.
The aroma characteristics are somewhat ‘bothersomely’ repeated in the tastes and frankly they do not improve much. The nagging sweetness replaces what should be a dry, clean, bitter Saaz bite in the finish, and the beer generally under performs horribly for the style, and frankly doesn’t do any more than just that.
In a blind taste test I might have simply seen this as no more than a nasty, American adjunct.
