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.

Bottle picked up from Kaufland Prachatiche Czechia and consumed at home Wednesday 13th March 2024 cooking homemade veggie burgers and chips. Pours gold with a large white head, soft mouthfeel a little metallic twang, not really doing much for me, quite bitter and a little bit rough around the edges. Okay.

Fad på Beerpoint, Prag. Gylden med et meget stort skum. Dufter meget af korn. Smager meget af malt og lidt kedelig.

Tap at the brewery restaurant. Clear full golden body, white head. Caramelly aroma, light, vague herbal and vaguer still fruity touches. Sweetish, lean, soft, boring taste, caramelly, traces of herbal notes somewhere in there with the bitterness feeling like 10 rather than the stated 30. Not doing anything for me. Might as well be from anywhere in the world.

Tank at the Pivovarská restaurace. Full clear golden body, white head. Sweetish light caramelly aroma, lightly fruity. Empty, smooth taste, clean, smooth light herbal-flowery hoppy touch, traaaace apple perhaps. Goes well with food, does its job fine!

Lekki diacetyl, ziołowe, lekko ziemiste i mineralne, bardzo przyjemny chlebek na finiszu. Barwa złota, przejrzyste, piękna i trwała piana, lacing delikatny. Goryczka zaznaczona, ziołowa. Praktycznie perfekcyjny czeski pils.
