Moravan

Tap to rate

Moravan is a pale draught beer in which maltiness and bitterness stay in balance: a pleasant bitterness, medium body and excellent crispness, topped by a rich head. Straightforward and honestly brewed in Litovel, it is described as a beer with soul, loved where its roots lie. The brewery ferments in open vats, the traditional cold work of yeast.

Tasting Notes

AI-generated sensory profile for Moravan

◎ Appearance

Moravan presents a pale golden hue with excellent clarity and bright, clean transparency. A rich and persistent head crowns the glass, with fine bubbles rising steadily through the body. The carbonation is lively and well-integrated, creating a crisp visual presentation characteristic of a well-crafted Czech lager.

◌ Aroma

The nose is clean and inviting, with a soft malt foundation that speaks of honest grain work. Noble hops contribute a restrained, elegant bitterness in the aroma rather than aromatic florals or citrus. A whisper of yeast character from the traditional open-vat fermentation rounds out the bouquet without overwhelming the composition.

◐ Taste

The palate opens with a crisp entry that immediately establishes the beer's refreshing character. Balanced maltiness and moderate bitterness trade places through the mid-palate, neither dominating but both clearly present. Medium body carries the flavors smoothly, finishing dry without harshness, allowing the pleasant bitterness to linger without fatigue.
