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.

Medium offwhite head. Yellow body. Rubbery grainy aroma with grassy notes. Dry chalky grassy taste with some sweetness with notes of straw and grain. Some rubber, too. Clean, clear taste, very refreshing. Not very complex, but surprisingly good. This is a quality beer. (0.5l bottle from Systembolaget, Charlottenberg.)

bottle. Golden yellow, large and creamy head. Malty and hoppy, slight sourness in the background. Not bad for an alcohol-free beer, thirst-quenching and quite pleasant.

Canned(500ml). -from BTC Center in Ljubljana, Slovenia as Litovel Classic Lehke Svetle Pivo.
This was the only one beer in some unprovided grocery store across Kratochwill in BTC. Golden coloured, small airy white head, lively carbonation. Weak malty and grainy. Tastes more like N.A. Boring.

Bottled. Dark brown, firm head.Sugary nose. Sweet and light bodied. Light boided with clean, hard mouthfeel. Light roasty malt mingles with saccharine and artificial cherries. Finishing almost without bitterness. This beer illustrates why dark beers are regarded a women thing in Czechia.
