winding down

Time just flies, that bastard.  Maybe it's fitting that the last place I had time to stop in is called Zlý Časy.  It doesn't look like there's much to it from the street, but it's much bigger than it appears.  It's not like a Tardis or anything, it just has room after room of tables, and several small bars on different levels.  Each area is cozy enough, and there's a nice patio - except today the neighbors seem to be doing some loud work.  Still looks nice.
Šnezova dark lager looked pretty good for an afternoon, although in the glass it's not particularly dark looking.  It's not especially strong in aroma, and the flavor is also very mild.  It's just a touch of bitter which disappears rapidly, none of the Central European grain- or grassiness.  For the most part it's a quiet and unassuming beer, a little bitter buildup at the back of the throat.  While it looks bubbly, and was very foamy from the tap, it has a very smooth texture.  A weirdly fruity taste starts to develop after a while, sort of banana-like.  I am pretty sure this is not a witbier, or has anything to do with that style.  It's not a distraction, really, although it is an odd thing to notice.  Still nice and relaxing overall.
