Budvar Nealko
An alcohol-free lager from Budvar at 0.5% ABV, built on Moravian barley and Saaz hops for toasted malt depth and a lightly spiced citrus edge.
Budvar Nealko is an alcohol-free lager brewed at 0.5% ABV. It uses Moravian barley for a bold, sweet, toasted malt profile and Saaz hops for a fresher aromatic lift.
The hop side brings a lightly spiced, citrusy aroma with a hint of bitterness, while the fuller malt base keeps the beer rich and satisfying rather than thin.
Tasting notes
- Aroma: Lightly spiced and citrusy
- Palate: Sweet toasted malt with firm lager structure

Why it stands out
- Keeps the same Moravian barley and Saaz hop direction as the wider Budvar range
