.pepper..beer won in the Cervesia Specials competition!

When the Czech Republic is mentioned in the world, people usually think of Jaromír Jágr and right after him, beer. We Czechs are simply world-famous for our love of the hop beverage. That’s why we couldn’t resist trying to realize the idea of combining our national treasure with a bit of spice from distant Kampot. And it wouldn’t be us if pepper didn’t play the main role in it.

Pilsner beer, properly spiced with Cambodia

To be able to create a beer special flavored with Kampot m pepper, we needed to find an equally crazy partner, who turned out to be the Proud brewery, a specialist in various beer anomalies that, however, taste damn good.

That we chose correctly is also proven by the latest win of our .pepper..beer PEPPER YOUR SAISON in the Cerevisia Specialis competition, where we placed first among eighteen beer specials in the unusual beers category.

What does beer with pepper taste like?

That our pepper beer is truly unusual can be seen and tasted right away. A gently cloudy golden color accompanies a flavor journey through the Cambodian pepper plantations, which in many ways resemble Czech hop fields.

The delicate aroma of dark red Kampot pepper brings a slightly earthy spicy taste to the top-fermented, unfiltered, and moderately bitter beer, supported by an exotic hint of clove. The red pepper also ensures the presence of subtle fruity tones, which are the cherry on top of the foam of this specialty.

Our pepper beer is a great refreshment but also finds its place when paired with red meat. Don’t hesitate to experiment a bit with it in the kitchen, basting meat with it or using it in sauce preparations. However, we don’t need to reveal more. We Czechs know best in the world how to handle beer!
