12 Sv. Jana Nepomuckého
Wheat beer with a strong fruity aroma and taste of banana and clove and a low, mild bitterness. It is cloudy from yeast and ends refreshingly. Top-fermented, with at least 50 percent wheat malt, unfiltered and unpasteurised. The brewery points out that this style is among the oldest by origin. It is brewed from water, barley and wheat malts and hop products.
Tasting Notes
AI-generated sensory profile for 12 Sv. Jana Nepomuckého
Slightly warmer than a lager — 8–12°C allows the banana and clove esters from the yeast to fully develop.
Tall and narrow at the base, flaring at the top — designed to hold the abundant foam of a wheat beer while showcasing its hazy golden body.
Best fresh. The yeast-driven banana and clove character fades over time. Drink within 4 months.
