Description
The first written records of the brewery in Protivín date back to 1540. In 1711, it became the property of the Schwarzenberg noble family, where it remained for more than two hundred years. During the Schwarzenberg era, a beautiful brewhouse with copper boilers was built, including an atypical wort pan in the shape of a square, where beer is still brewed to this day. South Bohemian water from its own wells, traditional way of brewing and skills of South Bohemia are for decades the basis of beer brewed here, known under the brand Platan.

In 2008 the brewery became part of the Pivovary Lobkowicz Group.

Platan 11% Světlý Ležák/Jedenáctka Svĕtlý Ležák. Õlle on selline jook, et iga uus kord kui klaasi või pudeli suule tõstad, siis leiad midagi uut, sõltuvalt tuhandest-miljonist pisiasjast, mis hetke olukorda mõjutavad. Seega kirjutan igale õllele selle sama teksti.

0,5 can. Mély, aranysárga szín, csodaszép vastag fehér hab. Visszafogott illat, malátás, zavaró nincs benne, kis komlósság is érződik. Közepesen testes, de a magyar lagereknél sokkal jobban, finomabban komlózott, mellette malátás, édeskés is. Bele illik a klasszikus cseh pilseni kategóriába, ott tudják, hogy kell ezeket csinálni... És pedig ez "csak" egy nagyüzemi sör...
**
Deep, golden yellow color, beautiful thick white head. Restrained aroma, maltiness, nothing distracting, a little hoppy. Medium-bodied, but much better and more delicately hopped than Hungarian lagers, with maltiness and a touch of sweetness. It fits into the classic Czech pilsner category, they know how to make these things there... And yet this is "just" a large-scale beer...

50cl bottle. A clear deep golden beer with a mid-sized most good lasting off-white head. Aroma of sweetish pale malt, hints of honey and straw. Taste of mild spicy bitter hops, straw, mild sweetish pale malt, nothing special.
