Description
When a beer enthusiast and a brewer come together it one household it can only end up in cirrhosis or a brewery. Lucky for us, it was a brewery and we have been brewing modern beer without filtration or pasteurization since 2016. In 2021 we purchased CK tanks in Fenetra / Clock brewery and moved all of our production into this cutting edge facility. Why Chroust? Our names are Karolína and Jirka Chroustovský.

0.5l bottle. Malty aroma, sweet dried fruits, plums, caramel. Hazy copper color, white head. Malty taste, caramel, sweet biscuits, dried forest fruits, plums, figs, light hopy notes, light to medium sweet, light to medium bitter. Full body, oily texture, flat to soft carbonation and malty bitter-sweet finish. Alcohol is nicely hidden, but I miss much more hops in it. Overall, it is like some kind of Strong ale or Barley wine, not an IPA but good.

Tap at Salon piva. High bitternest, also high intensity of fruity hops character. The cleanest and most easy drinking of the bunch at Salon piva, which seems as a kind of paradox since it is the strongest. However it is tasty, balanced, ABV hidden well. Very good.

Tap at Salon piva. Very intense, rich. Full bodied, high carbonation. High bitterness, lots of hops character, mostly coconut, invoking thoughts of bourbon barrels. Overall a good beer, intense, not traditional, but interesting.

Tap at Salon piva. High attenuation and thin body as it should be. I could use slightly more bitterness (it is relatively moderate) and more juiciness and freshness to the hops character, which is center of this beer. Good one though, moreish.
