Ostravar 10

Ostravar
Czech Republic·Czech Pale Lager
Tap to rate

Czech hop aroma, a balanced bitterness and a fuller body with a lively snap: a pale draught lager with an original, full flavour. It ferments in the open vats of the spilka and rests for many weeks in cool, dark lager cellars, where slow maturing and after-fermentation build full beer flavour, drinkability and that snap.

Tasting Notes

AI-generated sensory profile for Ostravar 10

◎ Appearance

Pale golden color with excellent clarity and bright transparency. A dense, creamy head forms quickly and clings to the glass with fine Schaumhaftung as the beer is consumed. Lively carbonation creates a steady stream of fine bubbles rising through the clear body.

◌ Aroma

Noble hop character dominates the nose with subtle floral and herbal notes typical of Czech varieties. Light, clean malt backbone provides a gentle grain sweetness without overwhelming the composition. The overall impression is fresh and inviting, with no off-aromas or yeast-derived phenolics.

◐ Taste

Entry is smooth and full-bodied despite the moderate alcohol, with a well-integrated malt foundation that delivers subtle breadiness and grain character. Mid-palate develops a balanced, measured bitterness from the noble hops, never sharp or astringent. The finish is clean and dry, with a characteristic lager snap that invites the next sip.
