Description
The first reports about brewing beer in Vysoký Chlumec date back to 1466. From 1474 onwards the brewery was owned by the Roudnice branch of the traditional aristocratic Lobkowicz dynasty. The first preserved letter to the brewery in Vysoký Chlumec dates back to 1611. During 1939-1945 and 1948-1992 the Lobkowicz family was deprived of the right to manage the brewery. In 1992 they got the brewery back through restitution. Immediately, the Lobkowicz family invested in the modernisation and innovation of brewing in Vysoký Chlumec which was completed in 2006. Own brewing stopped in 2021.

0.3 l on tap at Pivný Janko 2018. Clear, reddish amber with a medium large, foamy, almost stable, off-white head. Sweetish-malty, slightly grassy-spicy and a little fruity aroma of caramel, some nuts and a touch of red fruits. Quite sweet, malty, slightly grassy-spicy and a bit fruity taste of caramel, toasted nuts, some straw and a touch of red fruits, followed by a short, moderately bitter, slightly grassy-spicy finish. Medium body, smooth and slightly effervescent mouthfeel, soft carbonation. Nice!

Točené (Na staré sokolovně, Podolí): Deep golden with an orangey sheen, medium-sized white head; bitter-fruity nose with a slight acidity ( not caused by iinfection) thin malty base; moderate bitter-sweet flavour, light to medium bodied, a bit tart; shorter bitter-malty finish. Not very impressive! V tě hospodě se toči bohůdík také pravý Prazdroj...
