Platan kvasnicový

Tap to rate

A pale Czech lager that keeps brewer's yeast in the beer, brewed from water, barley malts and hops. It follows the house method of the Protivín brewery: double decoction, cellar lagering and the brewery's own yeast strain, which is multiplied at its own propagation station.

◌ Aroma

The nose is dominated by fresh yeast character—earthy, slightly phenolic notes typical of active lager cultures. Beneath lies a clean, grainy malts sweetness with hints of bread crust. Noble hops contribute a subtle herbal restraint, allowing the fermentation character to lead.

◐ Taste

The palate opens soft and smooth, with a pronounced yeasty character that sits comfortably alongside bready, grain-forward malts. Light, crisp bitterness arrives mid-palate from Bohemian-style noble hops, balancing without asserting dominance. The beer drinks clean and refreshing, with no rough edges or astringency.

◑ Finish

The finish is dry and lingering, with yeast and grain notes persisting gently on the palate. A subtle herbal dryness from the hops carries into the aftertaste without aggression.
