Description
Pécsi Brewery is an independent brewery with a history of 170 years of uninterrupted operation. The factory meets the highest quality standards (IFS), uses its own karst water source, and has a stable access to regional supply of ingredients. The owners have decided in 2017 to limit the annual beer production to a maximum of 200.000 hectoliter per year. Its home, the lively city of Pécs is located on the southern slopes of the Mecsek mountains in a mild climatic almost mediterranean corner of Hungary.
While our Pécsi and Szalon lagers are among Hungary’s most popular beers, the company has successfully started to market top fermented beers such as Weissbier, Pale Ale and APA. Our brewing is pursued according to the German Beer Purity Law in order to create the purest beer possible. The commitment to environmental sustainability and the preservation of biodiversity motivated our team to launch our successful organic product series in 2019.

Can purchased at the 8&8 Delikát (believe it or not). Poured a shiny yellow body with a small white head that went away fast. Empty nose, some dry graininess. The taste is a mess. Some crappy light sourness, some soapy (but ok really) herbal hopiness, very light breadiness biting carbonation. Dry and unbalanced. Why?

2/7 0.5 l can courtesy of Doggythedog, thanks for sharing! Of course, it poured very pale yellow body with somewhat bigger head that went down fast. Strong lemony and tonic dryish nose. Just a bit bitter flavor, lemony and a bit sugary as well. Some crappy malty beer in the background that ruins it even more. Quite bad aftertaste malty and bitterish from that artificial lemon. Generally not bad, not offensive, refreshing, specially on a such hot summer day, but that’s about it.

0.5l can found in Budapest, shared with heavy. Poured a paaale yellow body with a fine small white head that went away fast. Fakeish lemony/limey notes, some grainy malt. The taste is fakeish lemon again, residual sugar going a little in the aftertaste. The smoothness of the mouthfeel and a lack of offensiveness helps it a lot but it’s still nothing special.

0.5l can that managed to get punctured while I was carrying it from Zagreb to Split... I managed to salvage enough for a rate but still a damn shame...Red/brown body, a little darker, almost no head for obvious reasons. Sweetish caramel malts in the nose. The taste is sweet again, caramel again, some wood and lightly crude hop bitterness. Kinda light but a pleasant enough Czech-style dunkel coming from a brewery whose supermarket lagers are the scourge of Hungary (the other breweries aren’t any better but you see these around more).

Canned(500ml). -Pale yellow coloured, medium sized white head, few streams of carbonation, neutral nose. The closest description goes like this: water with dust. Dryish finish. Awful.

Can, purchased somewhere in Budapest. Poured a dull shiny yellow body with a big white head that went away fast. No, absolutely no aroma, Ogi sensed something sour, but I simply couldn’t sense anything. Taste? ancient dust with a touch of grain, extremely light acidity. Soft mouthfeel because it’s so watery but bordering on disgusting. 1.1 is WAY more than it deserves. Pécsi probably hit a new low with this one.

50cl bottle in Budapest. drank a whole bottle after a long day of walking, must say it was very refreshing. aroma and taste are mostly lemon with some faint hints of malts. Drinks just like a soda with some limited beer to be noticed.
