Czechvar Ceske Budejovice, Czech Republic 5.0%abv
Serious Lager. A true representation of the Pils/Lager style. A must try!
This Pils/Lager from Ceske Budejovice (Budweis), Czech Republic has been embroiled in a one hundred plus year legal battle over the name “Budweiser”. Pours a dull Blonde/Gold color with a nice frothy white head and plenty of sticky lace. The distinctive Euro-hop aroma awakens the senses upon pouring. The Light/Medium sweet malt compliments the crisp spicy and somewhat metallic hop bitterness. Clean and dry with a nice mellow herbal quality. No beech wood? - That’s a plus! Sold as “Czechvar” Beer in the US and some scattered countries giving in to corporate pressure, and Budvar elsewhere. You have to try it!...at least to help defray legal expenses.
Foods: Indian, Thai, Chinese, spicy, mild or sharp cheeses, chicken
