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 Base Camp. 0.3l, paid the 0.5l price, but hey. Hazy golden ody, off-white thick head. Bit coconutty, herbal hoppy aroma. Bit buttery-coconutty taste, lightly meaty, dry, ending bitter. Okay!

Das ist mal ein richtig schweres Stück🦣. Der Alkohol lässt gleich gar keinen Schaum aufkommen und es duftet intensiv harzig-holzig 🌲 nach Bourbon Whiskey. Man muss warten, bis es warm wird 😉, damit es seine volle Aromenvielfalt ausspielt. So kommen Rotwein 🍷und Whisky 🥃nicht zu kurz und auch ein bisschen angebranntes Röstmalz findet sich im durchaus runden Körper wieder. Sehr komplex, aber auch abgestimmt und interessant. Nur etwas für wirklich erfahrene Bierfreunde. Diese kommen dafür aber voll auf ihre Kosten.

Tap at Dno pytle. Paaale chalky yellow body, off-white head. Fresh grapefruit aroma, vague onion. Soft light dry grapefruit chalky taste, not sweet, which is a plus. Drinkable and summery, just lightly candyish. Solid!

February 2025, at Symbiont (accidental rerate as I didn't realize the above was for the 2024 Grapefruit version).

Tap at Symbiont. Fun to have a "Summer" beer at -7°C outside. Misty pale yellow body, off-white head. Grapefruit on the soft, bit oaty aroma, somehow a bit green. Lean, dry, soft taste, not much hop, maybe vaguely floral, the grapefruit isn't too aggro. Kinda works, not their most impressive beer but it's okay. 8/6/6/8/6.5
