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.

Bottled (backlog, tnx Kim N.). Golden colour, small white head. Aroma is hay, grass, some bready hops with also a bit of malty sweetness to it. Flavour is bready, caramelly, some grass and hay along with mild honeylike sweetness. Quite basic in a way, but still enjoyable.

Bottled. A bit hazy, orange/golden colour with small white head, which disappears completely. strong barley and malt mix in aroma, with some hints of honey. Bready flavour with a bit of hops, honey in finish. Honeyish aftertaste. Mouthdrying. A bit heavy carbonation in my opinion.
