Zlatopramen 11

Zlatopramen
Czech Republic·Czech Premium Pale Lager
Tap to rate

A fuller-bodied, full-flavoured Czech eleven-degree lager with a balanced taste that comes from carefully selected hops and malt. Pleasant bitterness and a lively sharpness sit under a rich foam and a bright golden colour. Zlatopramen went down in Czech brewing history as a pioneer of the “eleven”, and this one is brewed from water, barley malt, hops and hop extract.

◐ Taste

Full-bodied entry with satisfying malty richness that avoids heaviness. Mid-palate presents balanced bitterness—crisp and herbaceous rather than aggressive—complemented by a subtle bready sweetness. The finish remains dry and sharp, with a pleasant hoppy bite that refreshes without harsh astringency.
