Pivovar se zaměřuje především na hořká spodně kvašená piva.
Původ pivovaru sahá k mělkým, ale pevným kořenům Republiky Ovipistán.
Client brewery since 2016 (last at Kunratice), brewing at its own plant since 2020.

Tap at Napalme. Rather thin body, med-light carbonation. Medium bitterness, low sweetness, pretty dry. Also a bit grainy and light lager yeast basementy character. Overall pretty clean feeling though. Lack of cascade is the main problem here. Good lager, but very low hops character, basically feeling all lagery and no cascadey. Can not rate it very high.

Tap at Zizkovske pivobrani. Medium body, medium buttery diacetyl, not the cleanest unfortunately. Lacks hops, only vague light grassy zesty citrusy character, but sadly overshadowed by butter. Even without the diacetyl, it would feel watery, lacking some substance. Average. They have better offerings.

Tap at Maly pivo. Medium body, med-low carbonation, could use just a bit more. Medium bitterness, light sweetness. Light diacetyl, moderate grassy herbal hops character. Actually really classic feeling, well balanced. Really good, crushable.

Samospad at the TTO at Malý Pivo. Hazy golden body, thick off-white head. Smokey aroma, beans, bacon, lean, sweetish pleasant. Lean, dry, but sweetish, soft taste, smokey beans, vague green apple, herbal hoppy touches in the finish. Okay.

Tap at the TTO at Malý pivo. Clear full golden body, off-white head. Fruity, creamy, floral hoppy aroma, bit peachy. Actually, Most in quite good shape! Bit fruity, peachy, somewhat caramelly maltiness. Ends bitterish. Solid!

Tap at Malý pivo. Clear golden bottle, off-white, thick head. Catpiss-driven aroma. Catpiss-driven taste, bit citric, mildly floral, ending lightly herbal, fairly crisp, lightly grainy. Okay, but the hop profile is off in my opinion.

0.5l at Malý pivo. Misty very dark, blackish brown body, off-white head. Herbal, bit yeasty, lightly malty aroma, bit dry.
Dry taste, caramelly, mild dark malts, some green apple, herbal bitter finish. Kinda tasty, kinda not.

Tap at Ovipistan TTO at Maly pivo. Rating from memory. This was an ok dark lager, not great, not terrible. Not very big on roast, with sweetish caramelly malt being present, as well as some fruitiness. Not too much, it was drinkable after all, just not great.

Tap at Ovipistan TTO at Maly pivo. Rather thin body, light carbonation too, lacking bubbles. High bitterness, low sweetness, pretty dry, but also pretty watery feeling, due to low carbo. Once again , this beer feels past its prime - at least there is negligible caramel here, bit cheesy hoppiness is present. Overall hops character is mostly grassy, feeling a bit harsh too, hop burny somehow. Brilliant clarity, deep golden colour, poor head retention. Average-good.

Tap at Ovipistan TTO at Maly pivo. Golden colour, brilliant clarity, poor head retention. Thin body, med-light carbonation. Also feels a bit old, as did the Tajemnik. The Sladek-Saaz-Citra hops combo seems to be nice, but past its prime here, with a bit of cheesy off character. High bitterness, rounded by age, med-light sweetness, a bit of caramel. Good, but kinda simplistic, boring, and feels past its prime. Average-good.
