“Hojnost” [ho:ynost] means abundance or to be plentiful in Czech and represents an annual harvest beer. This batch was conditioned in a freshly emptied white wine barrel for 10 months. A collaboration with the aforementioned Jan of Pivovar Lajka with whom we share the mutual love for the classic beers. It was brewed with local, fresh harvest ingredients and a very generous amount of organic whole leaf Saaz hops. This hop lot was exceptional despite the difficult year for hops in 2020 in Czech Republic and is elegantly embroidered into the backbone of rustic grains and malt. The beer was split in half and each brewer took it in a different direction. A year later there are 2 distinctly different beers, but sharing the same roots and values.

Flaska från Métaphore. Klar, ljusguldig med vit krona. Snäll maltighet, honung, blommiga toner, snäll brett-ton, fat, lagom beska. Gott.
