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 :)

Tap at Salon Piva Bratislava. Malty taste, chocolate, light coffee, light caramel. Dark brown color, creamy beige head. Malty taste, chocolate, coffee, light sweet notes, medium bitter. Medium body, slick texture, soft carbonation and malty, bitter finish wiyh coffee notes. I miss the hops in it. It’s more like stout that IPA, but not bad.

Tap at Salon piva. Hops centered, though the hops itself seems to be slightly stale. The hops character is resiny, zesty citrusy fruity. Good one.

Tap at Salon piva. Slightly caramelly and a bit of diacetyl present. Otherwise it is a pretty balanced lager, with equal parts grassy herbal hoppiness, grainy bready maltiness, moderate bitterness and medium body. Good.
