Tap at the Žižkov fest. It's always great to see a new brewery / brewing project, especially when they are as ambitious as the Švabín people appear to be - and I guess aiming to revive a long-defunct but very historically important brewery! Wishing them all the best with that, of course. And of course I would rush to try the lager first. Golden-yellow, hazy, with an off-white head. Started with an odd, grainy touch in the aroma, red apple, light flowery-hoppy notes, but vague tartness as well... huuh. Smelled like some Swiss macro lagers I'd had before really and pretty much no Czech ones. Lean, dry, grainy taste, again, vague apple, the hoppy presence subdued underneath. Is this pasteurized? I see it's brewed by Nepo, so potentially yeah... Ah, I hope they improve it because this wasn't exactly great. Will try it again after some time passes, definitely, and hopefully rerate with a higher score.
