🌍 Czech Republic · Czech Premium Pale Lager · One of 19 Czech Premium Pale Lagers in hopIQ

The unfiltered version of Primátor's 11° pale lager is sold under its own label in bottles and kegs, at 4.7 %. Like the filtered beer it is brewed from Pilsner malt and hopped with Saaz and Sládek, but skipping filtration leaves yeast and a fine haze in the glass. It pours a cloudy gold under a dense, creamy head. Soft bread and cereal notes come across fuller and slightly yeastier, the Czech hops add a spicy, herbal aroma, and lively carbonation carries a distinct bitterness that stays on the tongue.

Tasting Notes

AI-generated sensory profile for Primátor 11 Ležák Nefiltrovaný

Appearance

The beer pours a bright, cloudy gold beneath a dense and creamy head that clings to the glass with notable persistence. The fine haze throughout the body is characteristic of the unfiltered style, created by suspended yeast and protein particles. Lively carbonation is evident in steady streams of fine bubbles rising through the liquid.

cloudy goldcreamy headfine hazelively carbonation

Aroma

The nose opens with soft bread and cereal notes, fuller and noticeably yeastier than the filtered counterpart. Czech Saaz and Sládek hops contribute a distinctive spicy and herbal character, with bright, herbal top notes that define the bouquet. The yeast presence adds a subtle earthiness that complements the noble hop aromatics.

Taste

The palate enters with soft malt sweetness and a full, rounded mouthfeel enhanced by the suspended yeast. Mid-palate develops a distinct spicy-herbal bitterness from the Edelhopfen, carrying a crisp, clean character that builds toward the swallow. The carbonation lifts and refreshes, ensuring the beer drinks lighter than its body might suggest despite the creamy texture.

Finish

The finish is marked by lingering bitterness that settles on the tongue with a pleasant, slightly drying quality. The aftertaste remains clean and refreshing, with fading herbal notes that echo the noble hop character throughout.
