Pražačka výčepní světlé

Tap to rate

A light, fresh-tasting pale lager of lower gravity in a light golden colour, with a pleasant aroma and a gentle bitterness. The recipe follows beers that were brewed in Bohemia at the start of the 20th century, adjusted for the quality raw materials and brewing technology of today. It ferments in open vats and lagers for 40 to 60 days.
