Staropramen Jedenáctka

◎ Appearance

Staropramen Jedenáctka presents a bright golden-amber hue with excellent clarity and fine carbonation visible throughout the glass. The head forms with moderate density and maintains good retention, leaving delicate lacing on the walls as the beer is consumed.

◌ Aroma

The nose opens with a gentle, restrained hop character typical of noble Saaz varieties, revealing subtle herbal and floral notes. Beneath the hop layer sits a pronounced malty backbone—caramel and breadlike grain impressions from the carefully selected three-malt grist offer warmth and depth without dominating the bouquet.

◐ Taste

Entry is smooth and malty, with caramel sweetness balanced against a refined bitterness that builds through the mid-palate. The interplay of five bitter and aroma hop varieties creates a composed, finely tuned finish—never harsh—with crisp grain character and a dry, hoppy edge that frames the overall profile without overshadowing the malt foundation.

◑ Finish

The finish is clean and medium-length, with lingering bitterness and a dry, slightly crisp aftertaste. The caramel and grain notes fade gradually, leaving a composed hoppy impression.
