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.

Tap at Dno pytle. Slightly hazy orange-golden body, off-white head. Bit sulfury, caramelly and toasty aroma. Soft, dry taste, floral, some caramel, big carbonization, dry and bitter finish. Solid take!

Gravity (!) at Dno pytle for the Chroust event. So... this is a pretty special brew. Their 2020 Christmas stout with Marshmallows was divvied up in some barrels for aging and, well... 4 years later, only one out of 5-6 if I remember correctly was good to go. And here it is. That's how barrel aging sometimes goes... Black body, off-white head. Creamy aroma, heaps of brett, tart, red wine barrel in evidence (okay, port). Dry taste, acetic, nice and drinkable, with nutty maltiness underneath. Well balanced wild stout, enjoyable!

Tap at Mešuge, with Gurthnar. Misty pale orange-golden body, off-white head. Sweetish-tart orange aroma, bit floral and herbal. Dryish but nicely juicy taste, orange, clean maltiness, bit herbal and bitterish in the finish. Very tasty, drinkable!

Can in a train. Thin body, medium carbo. Medium sourness, light tartness. Lots of raspberry, nice natural feeling. Little else to be found here besides that. Very clean lacto and beer overall, a hint of lacto funk maybe. Not very beery, but good, refreshing.

Tap at Base Camp. Hazy dull golden body, off-white head. The aroma combines grapefruit and stone fruit. Smooth, sweetish stone fruit taste, ending dry and with a low herbal bitterness. Nice one!
