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.

Malty, wheaty taste with notes of white bread, banana, apples and clove. Medium body, with a certain sweetness. Low bitterness. Hardly exciting, but well made and drinkable hefeweizen. Quite nice.

500ml bottle via djoeye, shared with Elisabeth, Finn and Stefan. Pearl white head resting on top of a pale golden body. Spotty lacing. Pale malty aroma, hints of mid-dry fruits. Flavoured with lemon and grainy malts. Harsh and short bitter endnotes. Soft carbonated. Has got little to offer (session at Finns in Tromsø, 07.08.2014).
