Únětické pivo 12°

◎ Appearance

Light golden hue with brilliant clarity interrupted by fine suspended yeast particles, characteristic of an unfiltered Czech lager. A dense, persistent white head forms and clings to the glass with fine lacing as the beer settles. Moderate carbonation rises steadily through the liquid.

◌ Aroma

The nose opens with prominent spicy and fruity notes—ripe stone fruit, particularly peach and apricot, mingles with grated gingerbread warmth. Beneath lies a robust yeast character and the distinctive herbal, slightly peppery signature of Žatecký poloraný červeňák hops, lending a noble-hop complexity to the bouquet.

◐ Taste

The palate enters full-bodied and malty, with the ripe apricot and bready gingerbread notes carrying through cleanly. Mid-palate the robust hop bitterness asserts itself without harshness, balanced by the substantial malt body. The finish dries progressively with lingering noble-hop bitterness and a subtle spiced character that echoes the aroma.

◑ Finish

The finish extends with a dry, persistent noble-hop bitterness that gradually fades. Aftertaste carries forward the malty sweetness and faint gingerbread spice, leaving the palate clean and refreshed.
