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.

Light golden lager colour. Small white lacey and foamy head. Hoppy and some musty malt aroma. A bit of sweetness on the background. Mouthfeel is starting watery - turning to sweet malt. Finish is weak and sweet.

Straw colour with large bubbles. Deep French bread maltiness and deep, oily Saaz aroma. The body is watery, though, and the palate shows only a hint of that richness. Flavourwise, this is weak and it's not the kind of beer you'd want to try twice.
