BEER OF ÚNĚTICE CULTURE

Beer has been brewed in our region since time immemorial. Already in prehistoric times, the people of the Únětice culture drank from bell-shaped cups that have survived to this day. The Únětice brewery was founded as early as 1710, as evidenced by the date carved into a stone pillar. In the steam century, the brewery flourished and the local beer became famous far and wide for its taste and quality. At one time, innkeepers even passed it off as genuine Pilsner. After the Second World War, however, his vats dried up for many years. Fortunately, the brewery was reborn in March 2010 and today, this honest beer from Únětice is popular again, not only in the dozens of restaurants and pubs nearby, but also in Prague. Take a trip to us, a brewery taproom with a cosy garden and spoiled beer, directly from the tank, await you.

Únětice Beer, 10°

Unfiltered, pale draft beer

The true Czech Tenner. You will see a light haze against light, caused by the natural content of the brewing yeast and other health-beneficial substances. The pleasant bread-like taste joins the prime bitterness of hops in a space just so very close to heaven. The tricksy smell will remind you of a walk through an alley of horse chestnut trees in bloom. It is a perfect choice for the start and for setting your taste on the beer note before the stronger colleagues of the Tenner come.

Únětice beer, 10,7°

Filtered, pale draft beer

A unique beer balancing on the edge of a Tenner and a Twelver, and yet not an Elevenner. A precisely carved-out taste with the touches of linden wood and walnuts is joined by the smell of a cracked-up crust of freshly baked bread. It deserves to be drunk from a glass facing the sun rays thanks to the ducat-like, goldish sparkle.

Únětice Beer, 12°

Unfiltered, pale lager beer

A solid lager beer of the typical Czech type. The slightly foggy colour might remind you of the princess with golden hair, combing her braids in the morning haze. The fundamental taste of the good old times with strokes of ripe apricots and graded gingerbread heart is balanced by the manly bitterness of the hops. We recommend it to the experts and to the advanced ones.

Únětice Christmas Special Beer, 13°

Unfiltered, semi-dark special beer

The semi-dark stocking stuffer for all the good beer lovers. The beer is produced by the secret recipe of the legendary Únětice brewery master Vladimír Černohorský. It is based on the “holy quaternity” of barley malts – the holy pilsner, the Munich, the caramel and the colouring ones, hand in hand with the bitterness of the first-class Czech hops. A beer which one can “chew”, with a medium tang and a gourmet caramel aftertaste.

Únětice summer special, 8°

Unfiltered, pale draft beer

This refreshing summer beer is so light that is must be drunk veeeery fast, so that it does not run out of the glass. The colour resembles dandelions in bloom and the fine foam head is reminiscent of dandelion fluff. The mild base is balanced by a decent bitterness, set just right. When one breathes in, a freshly-scythed meadow passes through the nostrils. This purely natural drink tends to be especially appreciated by the velocipedists (bikers) and by those who gravitate to remote places.

Únětice Special Beer, St. Wenceslaus 14°

Unfiltered, pale lager beer

A festive lager beer brewed at the triple mash, using the New Zealand hops. Unique beer of the colour of autumn leaves with the duke`s cap of the thick foam, prepared in honour of the Days of Czech beer and St. Wenceslaus – the patron of brewers. Duke of Czech lands, do not let us or our descendants perish of thirst!

Únětice Special Beer, 16° carnival bock

Unfiltered, semi-dark special beer

A bottom-fermented beer of a rich goldish to copperish colour for the real experts. A higher alcohol content around 6 %. The taste is dominated by malt brevity with a touch of honey-gingerbread. A light hops bitterness comes then in the aftertaste.
