Samson – Original Czech Lager 50cl

The authentic lager of Bohemian tradition: Samson Original Czech Lager is a balanced and refreshing Czech bottom-fermented beer, produced in České Budějovice since 1795 according to the ancient Bohemian brewing tradition.

Samson Original Czech Lager is one of the iconic beers of Czech tradition, produced by the historic Pivovar Samson, founded in 1795 in the city of České Budějovice (Budweis), one of the world's beer capitals. With over two centuries of history, the brewery is renowned for producing authentic lagers, made in compliance with ancient Bohemian recipes and with the highest quality ingredients.

This lager is produced using artesian water from a well over 270 meters deep, selected barley malt, and precious Czech hops, including the famous Saaz, one of the most appreciated noble hops in the world. The long, low-temperature maturation gives the beer great aromatic cleanliness, balance, and extraordinary drinkability.

In the glass, it presents a brilliant golden color and a fine, persistent foam. Delicate aromas of cereal, fresh bread, honey, aromatic herbs, and slight floral nuances emerge on the nose. On the palate, it captivates with the perfect balance between the sweetness of the malt and the elegant bitterness of the hops, with a dry, clean, and pleasantly herbaceous finish.

Awarded in numerous international competitions, including the World Beer Awards, Samson Original Czech Lager is an ideal choice for those who want to discover the authentic taste of the best Czech lagers, perfect for daily consumption and paired with traditional and international cuisine.
