Description
The more than 725-year-old beer tradition in Litovel dates back to 1291, when King Wenceslas II granted the city the mile right. This privilege allowed only the Litovel burghers to brew and tap beer within a radius of one medieval mile, i.e. in a vicinity of approximately seven kilometres. In the Middle Ages, beer was brewed in a brewing house, which was then located at Litovel 57. Those with brewing rights were among the most affluent people, and played a significant role in managing the city. Even contemporary Litovel beer is brewed using classic processes, the roots of which date back to this glorious historical era.

(bottle) Clear, golden colour with a medium-sized and slightly off-white foamy head. Slightly bready malty aroma with hints of butter and a tinge of caramel, accompanied by mildly grassy hops. Moderately bitter and slightly sweet flavour, light to medium bodied with a modest carbonation. Mildly bready and buttery malt character with herbal and grassy hoppy spice from the middle part; bitter-sweet finish with grassy hops and buttery, slightly oxidised malt. Decent. 29.VI.14

Dobre, porzadna i trwala piana, gesta. Kolor piwa ciemno bursztynowy, metny. Jest to niefiltrowany polotmavy lezak. W smaku drozdzowe, slodowe dosc bardzo. Chmielne lekko, ale nie az tak znaczaco zatecky chmiel sie wyroznial. Podobne do kellerbiera.
