Praga Czech Pils

Praga Premium Pils, Authentic Czech, 1784, Brewed by natural process using the best all natural ingredients. Brewed and bottled by Pivovar Samson, Czech Republic. 4.7% ABV.

The look: clear and golden, stable white head holds tight on top.

The aroma: light, floral hops, cereal grains, and a considerable amount of some skunk funk. (To quote the Brecker Brothers.) It's a green bottle. This happens.

The taste of it: clean, crisp, with a minimal spark of hops, and a lot of cereal malt flavor. Skunky aroma doesn't cross over into the taste, with something's holding this back from being purely pleasurable. It's light and easily drinkable, that's for sure. Ends on the dry side.

And as we get further in, it's mild and mellow and not hard to take. That's not glowing praise, I know, but I wasn't going there anyway.
