Description
In 1564 for the first time a brewery is mentioned in Svijany. In the following years the brewery was owned by different families. In 1912 it was bought by brewer Antonín Kratochvíle. The Kratochvíle family operated the brewery till 1939. After the war the brewery was confiscated and later nationalized. in 1990 the state enterprise Vratislavice nad Nisou was created, which included Svijany Brewery. In 1998 the company Pivovar Svijany was created, which became the new owner of the brewery. In 2005, it was transformed into a joint-stock company. Gradually Svijany became the strongest regional brand with national importance. The popularity of the brewery is increasing and it is gradually being developed into one of the largest independent breweries in the Czech Republic.
Svijany Brewery is wholly Czech owned and remains one of the last in ‚domestic‘ hands.

500ml bottle. Minimally milky, amber colour with average, fluffy, moderately lasting and lacing, white head. Slightly strawy, grainy, minimally spicy, pale malty aroma, a light bready touch, mild grassy hoppy and minimally buttery overtones. Taste is spicy, slightly bready, minimally grainy and strawy, pale malty, mildly bitter hoppy, a minimally doughy yeasty touch, some protein. Oily texture, smooth and soft palate, fine, mildly prickly carbonation. Well balanced, harmonious, homogeneous, nice spicy aspects - enjoyable.

0.5 can.Mahogany color, acceptable, creamy little finger thick head that remains. Restrained sweet, roasted malt aroma. Acceptably full-bodied among Czech browns, the canned one was too carbonated for me. I let it warm up a bit, it became more delicate, aromatic. Sweet-bitter, roasted flavor, quite a good basic brown lager. With good aftertastes.

Mahagóni szín, elfogadható, krémes kisujjnyi vastagan megmaradó hab. Visszafogott édeskés, pörkölt maláta illat. Cseh barnák közt elfogadhatóan testes, nekem a dobozos túl szénsavas volt. Kicsit hagytam melegedni, finomabb, aromás lett. Édes-keserű, pörkölt ízű, egész jó alap barna lager. Jó utóízekkel.

Õlle on selline jook, et iga uus kord kui klaasi või pudeli suule tõstad, siis leiad midagi uut, sõltuvalt tuhandest-miljonist pisiasjast, mis hetke olukorda mõjutavad. Seega piirdun iga õlle juures selle tekstiga.
