Export-only, kräusened version of the Výčepní. Do not confuse with the 5% Kroužek / Kroužkovaný Ležák, do not confuse it with unfiltered or zwickeled regular Budweiser Budvar.
A delicate blend of fresh, unfiltered lager and a batch that’s fully matured with a beautifully hazy gold colour, and a satisfyingly rich, deep flavour.
Our Kräusened lager (pronounced Kroy-Zened) is everything you’d expect from a golden lager with a fuller and crisper feel. Krausening is the time honoured way brewing bohemians would finish their beers. It is unfiltered, unpasteurised and matured in our cellars. We then add some freshly fermenting Budweiser Budvar original to kick start a second fermentation before it goes into kegs. In doing so the beer continues to ferment adding a softer, natural carbonation and finishing drier and cleaner as the fresh yeast works its magic in the beer.
Formerly B:Krausened and Budvar Kräusened.

On tap at GBBF 2018. Clear gold colour lasting white head. Yeasty cracker aroma. Decent pale Czech lager. Some sweetness. Good fresh beer though. Really rather decent. Light lemon. Some bitterness. OK though 3.3.3 really rate Hop Stuff Tap room Ashford. So drinkable full lager. Re rate. In a world full of bad pale lagers this is perfectly acceptable. Bit fizzy but fine.

Keg tap at the Knight & Garter. Golden yellow, hazy. Lemon, malt biscuit, honey and yeasty notes. Sweet, bready taste with a touch of citrus sour in the finish. Sweetish yet zesty aftertaste. Medium carbonation with a light body. Not terribly engaging but still quite palatable.
