What is a Czech Pilsner?
Pilsners are crisp golden lagers with 4–5.5% ABV and IBU 25–45. Defined by spicy, floral Saaz hops over a light malt backbone — bright carbonation and a dry bitter finish.

Serve & Enjoy
How to get the most out of Únětické Pivo 12°
Serve well-chilled at 4–6°C for maximum crispness. A pilsner served too warm loses its defining snap.
The tall, narrow pilsner glass preserves carbonation and showcases the golden clarity that defines the style.
Drink fresh and cold. Pilsners do not improve with age — within 3 months of packaging is ideal.
Tasting Notes
AI-generated sensory profile for Únětické Pivo 12°
◎ Appearance
Pale golden hue with exceptional clarity, showcasing the brewery's commitment to traditional Czech pilsner craftsmanship. A fine white head forms with good retention, supported by crisp carbonation that maintains visual appeal throughout the tasting experience.
◌ Aroma
Classic noble hop character dominates the nose with distinctive herbal and slightly spicy notes characteristic of Bohemian Saaz hops. Clean malt backbone provides subtle grainy sweetness with hints of bread crust, while the unfiltered nature preserves delicate yeast-derived complexity without any harsh phenolics.
◐ Taste
Entry is crisp and refreshingly clean with prominent grainy malt character balanced by herbal hop bitterness. Mid-palate reveals subtle malty sweetness and bread-like notes, while the 30 IBUs provide elegant, restrained bitterness that complements rather than dominates. Light body keeps the beer supremely drinkable despite its full-strength gravity.
◑ Finish
Bone-dry, clean finish with lingering herbal hop character that fades gracefully without astringency. The aftertaste remains pleasantly composed, inviting immediate return sips.
