Ale | Zweigelt
A cloak of purple and orange drapes the hillsides when Palava sits in the final stretch of the sun's daily path. The first signs of a fall chill are perceptible in the raised hairs of the forearm and perhaps even a breath's condensate.
For this harvest we selected Zweigelt grapes (2023) from Němčičky. This beer fermented on the pomace and aged in neutral oak for two years before bottling.

Když na ně dopadají poslední paprsky dne, pokrývá pálavské kopce purpurově oranžový plašť. První známky podzimního chladu o sobě dávají vědět v podobě husí kůže na předloktí a občas i páry od úst.
Při této sklizni jsme vybrali hrozny Zweigelt (2023) z Němčiček. Toto pivo kvasilo na jeho výliscích a před lahvováním zrálo dva roky v neutrálním dubovém sudu.

0.75 l bottle thanks to Marko who brought it from Prague, shared with Ogi and him. Unclear ruby red, small off-white head. Aroma is fruity at first, red grapes, rhubarb, pomegranate, slightly jammy in the back, raspberry. Definitely vinous and slightly acetic. Hints of oak and vanilla. Smooth, light body, soft tartness. Quite tannic, dry. Flavour is red fruit, tobacco, vanilla, black pepper and oak. Slightly thin, creamy, quite vinous. Dry finish. Very wine-like.

0.75l bottle from Lajka, shared with Hrabren and Ogi in Zagreb. Bit hazy ruby body, not much head, traces of a pinkish off-white one. Huge, serious aroma, very nicely expressed red grapes/wine, touch of glue, lightly herbal, well balanced. Smooth, soft, sweetish taste, red grapes/wine again, lightly spicy, no sourness really, oaky barrel touches, somewhat tannic, very well integrated, light glue, lovely really! Juicy, pleasant, very drinkable, huge respect!

Very elegant, thin bodied, med-light elegant barn funk combining well with the fruity red berryish red grapes, slightly cavernety. Med sour, smooth, med-light tart. Very good.
