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.

29/10 A 0.5 l can courtesy of Doggythedog, thanks for sharing! It poured golden body with medium sized head. Herbal hoppy aroma, pretty sharp, but weak, with some malty base. Flavor was a letdown in this beer as well, weak, just somewhat herbal hoppy and weak malty. Might be a good base, but it’s so weak and thin bodied, nothing hard can be felt or specially enjoyed. Short and watery finish, of course, nothing here. Damn those light beers!

0.5l can from Prague, shared with heavy Small-medium white head that went relatively fast. Golden body. Very, very light nose, bit oily, bit malty. Eh. Too light body. Nothing but a light hop, maybe herbal presence in the back. Maybe a touch of cardboard too. Way, WAY too watery for its own good and thus oh so dull.

Bottle bought at a supermarket in Berlin. Near black in colour witha short-lived white head. Roasty, milk chocolate and sweet caramel aroma. Flavour had more chocolate, molasses, prunes and milky coffee, leading to a dry finish. Good.
