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.

0,5 l can. Same label as 5,0 ABV Platan Premium, but judging by the can it's made for Russian market. Bought at Eurospin in Ljubljana. Anyway it pours clear rich golden with medium, rather quickly dissipating white head. Aroma of cardboard, herbal and flowery hop notes. In a strange way rich. Wife said head has ham flavor, but I couldn't taste ........Taste is medium sweet and bitter. Finish is medium log, herbal and pleasantly bitter. Almost decent for macro lager. And I've had it before MarkoNM... :D I guess it's same beer as Berthold Ležak and Argus 11 Bitter, both 4,8 ABV.
