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.

50cl bottle from Alko. 6,1%. Bb 01.10.14. Deep golden, lacing white head. Hay, butter, grain, swetness in aroma. Flavor has sweet malt, grain, buttery notes, hay and hops. Dry finish with hay and butter. Quite good really, not nearly as sweet as I had thought this would be.

Appearance as expected. Aroma: lots of bread, yeast, hay, rice, herbs. Medium bitter taste with sour notes. Long hoppy finish. I can’t say it’s worth of being noted among a large group of Czech Pilsner beers.

Bottle. Clear deep golden with a small, quickly-dissipating, white head. Grainy aroma of wort and a faint grassy hops note. Flavor starts sweetish and grainy and finishes with very metallic bitterness, a bit like chewing aluminum foil. Light-bodied. Unpleasant.

33cl can from S-Market, Helsinki. Pours dark brown with a lasting off-white to beige head. Mild roasty aroma with dark malts, caramel and hint of chocolate. Sweet and caramely with some roasty notes and a light bitterness. Pleasant and quite nice. --- Beer merged from original tick of Dark on 20 Aug 2013 at 19:57 - Score: 6

Aroma is mostly coffee. Dark colour, medium head. Low bitterness, but the beer is not sweet, so it tastes quite ok. Average carbonation, a bit too high for me, watery mouthfeel. Acceptable Czech dark - light beer without unpleasant sweetness, dominated by coffee flavour.
