🌍 Czech Republic · Vienna Lager · One of 33 Vienna Lagers in hopIQ

13 Polotmavé is a semi-dark Czech lager brewed from 13 degrees of original gravity to 5.5 %, which the brewery describes as a Vienna-type lager. A blend of Pilsner, wheat, Munich and caramel malts gives an amber to copper colour and a generous malt body, while Saaz and Sládek supply the bitterness. Caramel and toffee lead the palate, with toasted bread crust and a light nutty note, before a pleasantly lingering, moderate bitterness and brisk carbonation close it out.

Appearance

Amber to copper hue, bright and transparent with good clarity. A substantial, creamy head forms readily and clings to the glass with persistent lacing. Brisk carbonation creates a lively bead throughout.

amber-copperbrightcreamy headwell-carbonated

Aroma

The nose leads with warm caramel and toffee notes, supported by toasted bread crust character. Subtle noble hop spice from Saaz and Sládek emerges beneath the malt foundation, with a light nutty undertone that adds complexity without assertiveness.

Taste

Entry is full and malt-forward, with pronounced caramel sweetness and toasted grain character. The mid-palate sustains this malty body while bready notes emerge, leading to a clean, moderate bitterness that builds gradually. Brisk carbonation provides a crisp, refreshing edge throughout.

Finish

A lingering, pleasantly bitter aftertaste closes the experience cleanly, with residual caramel and toffee notes fading into dry minerality. The finish remains smooth and balanced, free of harshness.
