Description
The first real malting statute was confirmed by the municipal council of Iglau, as the town of Jihlava was called till 1948, in 1579. In 1859, all 123 owners of brewing rights in the town and surrounding villages joined in a new brewery, the present Jihlava Brewery. The brewery in Jihlava was opened in 1861, but the brewery considers the year 1860 as the year of its incorporation. From its incorporation the brewery had mainly German owners. After WWII it was nationalised and then privatised in 1995. In 2008 the almost bankrupt brewery was bought by the Pivovary Lobkowicz group. Under the new owners the brewery returned to the production of beer according to old original recipes.

Jezek Grand Pilsner - Possibly made just for export to Korea for Castle Praha & Czech Beer Inter their importation arm as they stopped brewing since it was cheaper to import. On tap at the GKBF. A deep gold with a foamy light beige head. A malty biscuit sweetness aroma. The taste is tangy sweet grainy malts with a bit of fruitiness. Bleh.

Draught at Grill & pub, Ústí n. L. Clear, light red colored beer. Malty sweet aroma, some flower notes. Light body, pleasant sourness (hibiscus?), slightly bitter, tones of steel.
Not very good one, but it could be worse.

Die Teufelin auf dem Etikett soll wohl auf die rote Farbe anspielen. Es ist ein rot-brauner Bock mit fruchtigen Aromen. Allerdings legt sich über alles eine Malzigkeit, welche ihrerseits von einem unangenehm starken Alkoholaroma überlagert wird. Gute Ansätze, aber man könnte mehr draus machen.
