Everything I Know About Beer I Learned at the Agricultural University

Ah, the tough life of a college student, nothing but studying, classes — and brewing beer.

So, after all that, how was it? Pretty damn good for something brewed by students — better even than a few local brewpubs I could name. Jeník seems to be a yeast beer, meaning that it should have an addition of fresh yeast after lagering. Typical of most such brews, it is a slightly cloudy deep gold in appearance with a yeasty nose and very light carbonation. In the mouth, the beer is light in body, faintly malty-sweet with a slightly sour finish and a grassy, peppery hop back-bite that approaches mint in flavor (a taste I’ve also noticed lately with bottled Pilsner Urquell).
