Description
We are a group of 4 beer enthusiasts. We have never been strangers to crazy ideas - and one evening another crazy idea came up, which now occupies us fully and we have to forget about the others for a while. Brew your own beer in Piešťany - good, honest beer, full of flavor. Ones that we will not be ashamed of, and to which we will gladly invite family and friends.

We visited almost all Slovak microbreweries and many Czech ones to get inspiration. Yes, we were a little envious and peeked. We understood that the beer we want to brew will consist of only 4 basic ingredients - water, barley, hops and yeast. No added enzymes, preservatives and other additives - and therefore no European beer, but honest domestic beer.

And so we started cooking. Each batch is slightly different from the previous one, because we are still not convinced that we have found the ideal ratio of ingredients. But it will come. We are still learning and we really enjoy it :)

Dieses Bier ist ein Kooperationsprojekt mit der zDola brewery, einer Kleinstbrauerei aus der Slowakei. Es besticht durch seine grasigen Hopfennoten, die nur sehr leicht ins Fruchtige hingehen. Das Bier lässt sich auf jeden Fall angenehm trinken, auch wenn es warm wird. Ein erfrischendes Bier ohne viel Ecken und Kanten.

Toasty, mineralic, but all in all not too exciting.

0.3 l on tap at 'Jánsky pivný'. Clear, reddish amber with a medium large, dense, stable, light beige head. Sweetish-malty, a little fruity aroma of caramel, some raisins and hints of toasted nuts. Quite sweet, malty, minimally bitter, slightly fruity taste of caramel, toasted nuts and a touch of raisins, followed by a short, moderately bitter, a little grassy, even minimally resiny finish. Medium body, very smooth and almost oily mouthfeel, very soft carbonation. Good one!

Sampled from tap at 'Žil Verne'. Hazy, amber with a thin, white head. Sweetish, intensely fruity aroma of massive peach with hints of pear. Quite sweet, minimally bitter, very fruity taste of lots of peach, some pear and a touch of citrus, followed by a short, slightly bitter finish with some herbal-grassy notes. Almost medium-bodied, smooth and slightly effervescent mouthfeel, very soft carbonation. Quite nice, a bit too much like peach juice though.
