Three from the Czech Republic:
Lobkowicz's Prince, Knight & Baron
by F. Sot Fitzgerald

How's this for a tale?

"The brewery in Vysoky Chlumec was established in 1466 and the Lobkowicz family purchased it in 1474. The Lobkowicz family has a long brewing tradition. It was interrupted only in 1939 when the brewery was confiscated by Nazis and the Lobkowicz family was forced to exile
to Great Britain. After World War II they returned to Czechoslovakia
just to see the communists take over their properties, including the
brewery in 1948. In 1992 the brewery was returned to Lobkowicz family and American born William Lobkowicz took over management of the family's assets in the Czech Republic."

Talk about history!  I culled that from Harvey Imports website.  They're the folks who are bringing these Lobkowicz beers to the U.S.
First up was Prince, a blonde bock.  It is small of head, pale gold, and noses and tastes of bread and citrus.  A touch sweet, crisp- it's a warm weather or by the fire place sort of beer.  (Rating ***1/4)
The came the Knight, a lean, crisp, neatly hopped Bohemian Lager.  This, not the slop that the big breweries in this country put out, is what lager should be.  Well done.  (Rating ***3/4)
Last up, alas, was the Baron, a dark lager that's light brown and clear and medium bodied.  In the mouth it begins malty and sweet then dries nicely on the close.  Substantive yet not stout, it is likely to appeal to nearly anyone, even those addicted to thin, yellow American beers. (Rating ***1/2)
