it's a movie star

This was my souvenir from my teacher's visit home, something authentic and useful.  Gambrinus isn't quite as famous as Pilsner Urquell, or Staropramen, but it's definitely a presence when one is in the Czech Republic.  I'll probably remember it forever as the beer prominently placed in the movie Revival.

Typical beer color, like so many Central European brews, with the prized fluffy, white head.  Same field smell as those Central European beers too, especially German ones.  Soothingly bitter, and a little tangy at the end.  Not overlaid with tons of flavors and smells, or especially strong ones, it's a pretty classic taste.  While perfectly pleasant, it's not so memorable as to conjure up a lot of visions of the past or dreams of the future, which some craftier beers do, but it can't be brushed aside either.
