Product Information

To that end, we can call it a fairly solid success. Stile Capri has an inviting pale-straw colour and a medium white head when poured, with the initial sips tasting distinctly of sweet lemon. Otherwise, the beer has a fairly subtle, light lager taste, with a not unpleasant savoury finishing note, which can probably be ascribed to the olive leaf. Overall, the light, sweet flavours of this beer make it a good choice for anyone looking for an appropriately flavoured yet straightforwardly drinkable beer for warmer days.

Original, 90-day matured pale lager and flagship of the brand, marketed as a premium lager, contains 5.0% ABV (inCzech: 12° or Ležák). Nuttiness is the main flavour you get when you pop the cap off the bottle, with a touch of malt and a smokey, roast flavour all mingling together. The label is visually striking, with the only part in red the Ceske Budejovice crest which is consistent across all their range of beers. The fingerprints are very 'private investigator' with the names and signatures of Adam Broz, Brewmaster at Budvar, and Ales Dvorak, Budvar official Beer Sommelier giving it a nice design touch. Golden color with a subtle honey aroma and a trace of citrus, punctuated by notes of malt and noble hops. A perfectly balanced, full-flavoured lager with a crisp, clean and fast finish.

Anthropology of East Europe Review. 21: 109–126.The profile of the beer, as always with Budvar, is one of harmony. It has a modest 24 IBU (International Bitterness Units) from the hops, but the roast of the specialty malts gives the beer a note of bitterness too. It’s a combination that balances the touch of sweetness from the caramalts and ties the profile together. Budvar Dark manages to tread the tightrope that keeps it refreshingly drinkable, while delivering a fistful of flavour. Notes of roasted malt, baked caramel, a touch of ground coffee and cocoa are joined with aromatic floral hints and brown bread. Budweiser Budvar is a great beer because it has great raw materials and great brewers. They produce it in a slow and painstaking way. Its integrity is best served by its being produced in its town of origin, in a region with pride in its beer. [14] Pale and lightly golden in appearance, with a medium, foamy head when poured, Breeze is an inviting looking lager with a moreish balance of flavours. Refreshingly effervescent to drink, the contrasting Jester and Boadicea hops used in its production give the beer subtle hints of spice and mild fruitiness that pair well with its sparkling character. Thanks to these juxtaposing flavours, as well as Breeze’s clean aftertaste, each sip of this easy-drinking lager seems to beget another, and another, and another… Pilsner: Originating in Czechia, and popular across central Europe, pilsners are lightly straw coloured lagers, tending to come in at around 4 to 5%.

Buy Budvar Original Czech Lager The flavour follows this nutty pattern, but there's also sweetness in there too from the caramel malt that helps to make it a more rounded beer rather than a straight nutty lager. Feel: Not watery or thin, it does hold some body. Nicely carbonated but not excessively so like some Euro lagers or Australian adjunct lagers. Drinkability and sessionability is extremely high.
