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.

2l dzban from Fire & Ice Wine shop. Wypite polowe po wyczerpujacym i niemal tygodniowym pobycie w Gorach do poznej odgrzewanej kolacji, splynelo po mnie ze nie odczulem ani alko ani kalorii, ani nawet sytosci. Gory zabraly mi tkanke tluszczowa bo schudlem kilogram w 4 dni. Niesamowity wyglad i opakowania dzbana, kartonu jak i piwa, piana wielka jak Kryvan, jak pomoc strazy w zatopionych miastach. Metne, zamglone niczym chmury nad Pilskiem. Tresciwe, w smaku drozdzowki, chmielnosc konkretna, kwaskowe, tak jak byc powinno, piana taka ze pisac lub wzorki mozna w niej robic. Doskonalosc. Jedno z lepszych bohemskich lezakow jakie pilem w nieco wiekszej ilosci niz zwykle.

Tap at petrzalka pub. Classic clear rich golden color, huge head, flavor of clean brady malts and lots of grassy saaz hops, hay, straw, a bit of biscuit. Crisp taste, lagery, clean, well balanced. Solid body, proper carbonation, fairly thick texture, mild-clean finish, moderately strong bitter, very clean.

V Paneláku. Vona chmelova, leziakova, slabsia. Farba medova. Chud chmelu, horkasta nie moc silna, osviezucuja. Pivo bolo moc nasytene a az pichalo.

Barva zlatava. Pena vysoka dobre drzi. Vune sladova, medova, obilna. Chut sladova, obilna, nizsi stredni plnost. Dojezd suchy peprna horkost, stredne dlouhy dojezd. Riz vyssi stredni. Jednoduchy lezak, zadne vystrelky, dobre pitny. Vyrazne lepsi nez zbytek svijanske produkce.
Taste 2: horkost vyssi stredni. Ma to takovou tu svijanskou prichut ale v dobrym. Ta vyssi horkost tomu svedci - rek bych ze je to skoro lepsi nez ta sklepni nefiltr vec.
