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 Can from Carrefour Bratislava, ABV 4.6%. A clear golden, quite sweet and very metallic lager, with a dry metallic, almost rusty finish, quite bitter. Really bad.

27/07 0.5 l can brought from Bratislava. It poured clear pale yellow body with bigger head. Grainy and somewhat herbal aroma. Flavor was a bit sweet, grainy, slightly metallic, with lot of cardboard bitterness. Medium body with long, but not particularly pleasant finish after all. Not really good, maybe a bad batch?
