The second of our Czech-style lagers for 2024, this beer brings the perfect balance of a complex malty bouquet with this spiciness of Czech and Hallertau hopping throughout the boil and whirlpool. Notes of graham cracker and hints of toffee are met with herbal undertones, while this lager finishes crisp and refreshing. Brewed with traditional Czech and German grains and hopped with CZ and Hallertau, it’s our take on the classic Polotmavé Pivo

Reviewed from notes.
Can to becher glass.
Appearance: dark red/brown color with a finger's worth of eggshell white foamy head which trailed off at a nice pace to leave some light lace
Aroma: caramelized malts, sweet earthy tones, subtle floral and some bready malts
Flavor: meshes the prior noted aromas to a fine sweet malty to semi-earthy vibe; finishes earthy to caramel toned
Texture: light to medium bodied, sessionable; very smooth along the tongue and good carb level
Overall: pretty nicely done Polotmavy I could return to.

Can at home. Dark for style burnt amber and frothy head. Appealing. Nose is malty and leaf litter. Tatses the same of fall forest floor, soft red fruit, malt, and dark breads. Chewy palate.
