Czechvar

Czechvar:
from Ceske Budejovice to the USA

… it really is what you think it is …

…the beer you have waited 62 years for…

It's finally here!

After an absence of 62 years the world-renowned B.B.N.P. brewery in Ceské Budějovice, the Czech Republic, has once again started exporting its Original Czech Premium Larger to the United States of America. Due to an unfavourable agreement with Anheuser-Busch, which in 1939 banned the use of the original brand name in the North American continent, this traditional Czech product is being introduced to the American market under the Czechvar brand name

Read a review from the Opinionated Beer Page.

From Beverage World, August 2001:

The worldwide trademark dispute between Anheuser-Busch and the Czech Republic's Budejovicky Budvar has brought an unprecedented amount of attention to Czech beers in the US. Rob Neuner, president of the Czech Beer Importers (Darien, CT)—which imports the controversial Czechvar (as it has come to be known in the States) as well as Rebel brands—can thank A-B for the publicity, though he feels it's not the only thing driving his product's sales: "The people who are drinking the Czechvar now are people who knew about Budvar and knew about the quality more than the whole trademark dispute." In addition, the large-scale marketing efforts of Pilsner Urquell (formerly through Guinness, now part of South African Breweries) have shown Americans that Bohemian brew is certainly worth looking into.


CZECHVAR LIGHT LAGER

Alcohol content: 5% of volume

A lagering period of not less than 90 days, a great provenance and a 700 years old brewing tradition guarantee the exceptional quality of Czechvar Premium Lager. Czechvar light lager has a thick rich head and markedly golden yellow colour. The bouquet is pronounced, typically beer-like, accentuating a hoppy aroma. Its bitterness is of a weak to medium intensity, gentle to slightly coarse character with a short-lived aftertaste. The fullness is medium and malty. The lager has a medium to robust body, which makes the drinker feel like taking another sip.

Available in 12 oz 4/6 packs NR, green bottles
17 oz (500 ml) 20/case, brown bottles, like getting four extra bottles in every case!
50 oz more beer per case at no extra cost.
