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.

Fél literes doboz egy random Sparbol. Világos arany színű, habja nincs. Mesterséges citrom aromája, és íze van, amely előbb édes, majd savanykásan cseng le. Citrom ízű üdítő, szomjoltónak elmegy, sörhöz köze nincs.

Straight from the 0.5 l can. Aroma and taste dominated by coffee and toffee notes. Short coffee aftertaste, a bit watery texture. Lively carbonated, easily drinkable. Average dunkel.

Can at home. Pours opaque golden with white head. Nose is faint citric, somewhat grassy hoppy with just a hint of hay and malts. Taste is light bitterness, some citric hops, nicely balanced sweetish malts (hay again). In fact it's pretty alright. Closes with estery, citric and grassy finish, has light body and average carbonation. This is a surprise cause it's actually a pretty nice beer all in all, if it had a bit more character it would be actually good.

0,5 can. Nagyon halvány, vizes hatású, a hab elillan, tucat ipari lager kinézet. Picit kukoricás érzetű illat, édességgel és egy kis komlósság is érződik fanyarul. Gyenge szénsavasság, állott hatás, nem jó korty, vizes is. Savanyú, egyáltalán nem érezni a komló-keserűséget, csak valami igénytelenebb malátázásból származó rossz, ipari alkoholosságot :( Nem jó!
***
Very pale, watery, the foam disappears, looks like a dozen industrial lagers. Slightly corny aroma, with sweetness and a little hoppy bitterness. Weak carbonation, stale effect, not a good sip, also watery. Sour, no hop bitterness at all, just a bad, industrial alcoholism from some undemanding malting :( Not good!

Dobozos. Tiszta arany színű, vékony fehér habbal. Illata nem sok van, bár könnyen meglehet hogy túlhűtöttem. Némi komló érződik ki belőle, enyhe gyógynövényes beütéssel. Az íze több szempontból is meglepő, először is a tény hogy van neki, másodszor pedig hogy nem is rossz: egészen határozott komló, virágos-gyümölcsös jegyekkel kísérve, majd hosszan lecsengő keserűvel zár. Nem kifejezetten pils szerintem, közelebb áll a hoplagerhez, viszont nagyüzemi szinten bőven vállalható kísérlet, soha rosszabbat.

0.5 l bottle. Another poor quality macro lager, perhaps somewhat better than the average, but still far from pleasant.

Dobozos. Teljesen atlagos buza, kulonlegessege annyiban merul ki, hogy illata inkabb witbier, izben pedig hefeweizen. A hazai (nagyuzemi) sorhelyzetrol sokat mond azonban hogy minden, atlagosnal alig jobb probalkozas mar udvozolendo.
