Flekovský Tmavý Ležák 13° is the signature beer of Pivovar U Fleků and one of Prague’s most distinctive historic beer specialties, brewed exclusively at the brewery’s premises. This traditional Czech dark lager is made using only natural ingredients, including water, hops, yeast, and four types of barley malt, without artificial coloring or preservatives.

Brewed in the classic Czech tmavý ležák style, it is known for its deep dark brown color, dense creamy foam, and a smooth malt-driven character. The flavor profile is defined by notes of caramel, toasted bread crust, cocoa, and gentle roasted malt, balanced by a restrained and pleasant bitterness rather than aggressive hop intensity.

Despite its richer appearance and fuller body, the beer remains notably drinkable, reflecting the Czech approach to balanced lager brewing. The “13°” designation refers to the original wort gravity in the Czech brewing system, indicating a fuller brewing strength rather than unusually high alcohol content.

What makes this product particularly distinctive is its exclusivity, as it is historically brewed specifically for consumption at U Fleků rather than broad commercial distribution. As the brewery’s defining product, Flekovský Tmavý Ležák 13° represents a living continuation of Prague’s historic brewing tradition and remains one of the most recognizable examples of Czech dark lager culture.
