About
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 BGB, still waiting for the Brits. Murky orange body, off-white, thick head. That weird African hop note again, reminding me slightle of urine...and flowers, herbs and vague citrus. Sweaty, smooth taste, similar, bit stale hoppiness, more stone fruit here, floral, spicy. Bit flat, the vaguest of herbal bitter touches in the finish. I mean, kinda works, but am I enjoying it? Not quite.

Keg at Beer Greek, Praha, 05/06/24. Sorry to keep you waiting Marko!
Hazed orange with an off white cap that thins to a swirl.
Nose is orange zest, bready malts, grass, melon, papaya.
Taste comprises tangerine, melon, soft breads, airy malts. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close with a balanced dose of juice laden hop bitterness. Not bad.

Tap at Bombovar. Med-full body, oaty, cereal, a bit yeasty, bready, doughy too. Med-high carbonation. Rather neutral hops character, a bit disappointing, med-light grassy, citrusy, vaguely fruity tropical. A bit basementy. Overall not bad, not great either.

Tap at MVP 2024, Olomouc. Hazy pale yellow body, white head. Creamy, bit coconutty, herbal and fruity aroma. Smooth taste, socky-pellety hops, citric and coconutty, which is not really optimal. Okay to a point, but it feels like something went wrong with the hops.

Tap at MVP. Med-thin body, med-high carbonation. Medium sweetness and sourness, light tartness and bitterness. Lots of berries defining the flavour. Good one, at least a bit original if not very beery.
