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.

0.5l bottle courtesy of and shared with ogivlado who brought it from Budapest (thanks!). Very palle dull gold body with a medium to big white head leaving heaps of lacing. Ooh, skunk, and some herbal notes. lemon too. Ogi had a somewhat favorable first impression (for a cheap Hungarian lager) but whatever optimism I had in the deepest recesses of my mind before tackling this one got stuck in the wall of stale dust that dominates the taste. Very light malt, some cardboard. Watery. Useless, crap. Unlike some of their other beers this might actually contain the hops. Heck, I think that the hops are on the label only to say "Hey, this is our crap beer, hop edition". It’s better than the cardboard and salt editions. Maybe.

0.5l can courtesy of and shared with ogivlado who brought it from Budapest (thanks!). Poured a shiny paaaaale yellow body with a small but persistant white head. Very light lemony and dusty nose, and the taste manages to be even weaker. Trust me, "extremely watery" is an understatement here. And what little there is is cardboard. Oh and there is some carbonation bite. Just when I thought that Pécsi couldn’t outdo themselves...

0.5l bottle courtesy of and shared with ogivlado who brought it from Budapest (thanks!). Poured a dull golden body with a medium sized white head that went away slowly. Slightly sourish vegetable nose. Ooh, promising. Not. Ok, some grain. The taste is weak and, again, grainy, on top of a sourish herbal hopiness. Watery, some apple, crap in general, but there are worse. Far worse. I don’t believe I actually rated this higher than someone...
