Řezané

Tap to rate

Řezané is the Czech name for a blend of light and dark beer, and at the monastery taproom it is made from the brewery's own 12° pale lager and 11° dark lager. That makes it a half-dark beer between the two classic Břevnov lagers.

◌ Aroma

The nose leads with soft malt character—grain sweetness and a hint of caramel from the darker component without becoming cloying. Noble hop character emerges as a restrained backdrop, contributing gentle floral and herbal notes. The overall impression is clean and balanced, with no sharp edges or oxidative qualities.

◐ Taste

Entry is smooth and approachable, with malt forming the palate's foundation. Mid-palate develops a subtle caramel note from the dark lager component, while crisp, clean attenuation keeps the beer refreshing despite its richness. Bitterness is restrained at 22 IBU, playing a supporting role rather than dominating.
