COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Tradition. Homage. Revolution.

When we brewed this beer, we shed blood, sweat and almost tears (we were somewhat the worse for wear after hosting a beer dinner at Musa the night before).

We wanted to showcase the awesome backbone of the Czech brewing tradition, the noble Saaz hop, and also tip our hats to the modern beers that rock our world, and the people who make them.

This is that beer, an imperious pilsner, 50kg of Saaz hops, 1400 kg of malt, 5000L of wort, 3 beer writers and 1 brilliant head brewer.
