For fourteen years now, we’ve been exploring just how far the world of beer can go together with you. In that time, we’ve brewed hundreds of recipes, and we’re still just as excited about discovering new flavours as we were at the very beginning. To celebrate our 14th birthday, we’re once again bringing you our anniversary series “14 Years of”, in which we return to what defines Zichovec, favourite recipes, bold ingredients and beers that have brought us the most joy over the years. For this occasion, we’ve pushed each of them a little further, made them stronger or taken them in a new flavour direction. 14 Years of Innovation is exactly the kind of beer that shows why, even after fourteen years, we still love trying new things. This time, we went for a sour inspired by carrot ice cream, with pineapple, lemon and a subtle touch of cinnamon. Instead of lactose, which is commonly used in similar dessert beers to add sweetness and a creamier body, we used vegan ice cream powder. It does much the same job in the beer, while keeping the entire recipe fully plant-based. The result is a sweet and sour, intensely fruity and lightly spiced beer with a creamy dessert-like character.
