About
In 2011 we opened our local microbrewery in a former music club in Jihlava. Where DJs were in charge, we now had beer tanks, fermenters, brewhouse and we started our own ride.
Already in 2012, we with the semi-dark Sigismund placed third in the spring brewer price. A year later - 2013 - we were the third best microbrewery of the year and a year later we were the best microbrewery ever in the Czech Republic. And we also won the spring prize of Czech breweries with our wheat beer.
Time went by and the capacity of the cellars slowly ceased to be sufficient. At the same time, we thought of a new brand that we named MadCat. And then we were impressed by the building of a dilapidated distillery from 1912 in Kamenice near Jihlava. We decided to save the building and restore the craft production. Reconstruction of the distillery began in 2017 and next summer we brewed the first batch of MadCat beer in a brewery with a capacity of 2,000 liters.
Our new MadCat lager won first place at the spring prize of Czech breweries 2018! And the ride continues - MadCat is already in the Czech Republic, Slovakia, Germany and Italy.

PETka from Farmarksy Obchod Praha. Cloudy golden-brownish colour, mid-sized white head. Christmasy aroma. Full-bodied with good, biscuity malt favours, plus lots of spices such as clove, cardamom and other christmasy spices, some aromatic hops as well, and of course pumpkin in the background. A very nice beer for dark october nights.

Small yellowish head over fully hazy, well-carbonated foxy-orange beer. Spiced nose, like lavender, and speculoosherbs (coriander, cinnamon, clove, ginger, cardemom, white pepper). Dry, spiced & vegetable flavour; fried and stewed vegetables - no doubt pumpkin - and some choice herbs. Precious little sweetness. Very light MF, bit grist (or vegetable) slickness. Aftertaste has some sharpish vegetable bitterness in store on the tonguesides. OK, nothing out of balance. Thanks for this rare one, Honza!
