Commercial Description:
Extraordinary beer made only from malt-house, water from the granite historical wells of Jihlava´s brewery and from the soft hops products. The uniqueness is given extraordinally full taste, soft malt taste and scent. Even thought the alcohol content is 8,1% its taste is ranked among classical Czech beers - nicely bitter, with the stable foam and bread-taste. Also its colour distinguishes "Jihlavský Grand" from the others - it´s honey-gold.

0.5l bottle courtesy of and shared with ogivlado who brought it from the Czech Republic (thanks!)
Poured a dark golden body with a small white head. Grainy, somewhat fruity nose with a noticeable alcohol presence. The taste is dominated by a sticky fruity maltiness, some grain ending with a crude hop bitterness. Alcohol noticeable. Ok but there are far more balanced beers at that strength.

Bottle 50 cl. Courtesy of Grovlam. Clear, deep golden with a rough, off-white head. Sweetish aroma with distinct alcohol. Fat and full-bodied, intensely malty with something reminding me of sherry and a warming alcoholic finish. 150109
