UltraTap Czech Pilsner Spout

Works with the UltraTap Martinus to pour perfect Pilsners or a standard Ultratap for dispensing English cask ales.

The extra spout length can be inserted into the glass and beverage during filling to enhance the presentation on authentic Pilsner and lager beers.

An internal micro screen within the tap helps to break the surface tension of turbid beer and create a wet foam. When using the micro screen with the Martinus tap in the fully opened position minimal foam is produced, however slightly cracking the tap open will cause foaming and allow you to adjust the amount of head produced.

How to use Martinus to pour Czech Pilsners?

There are three distinct pouring styles for Pilsner Urquell and other Czech Pilsners. The Hladinka method is the conventional approach, resulting in a mug that is half filled with beer and half filled with foam, approximately three fingers high. This technique achieves a harmonious balance between the beer's bitterness and sweetness. 

The Šnyt style involves a smaller serving of beer in a larger glass, comprising two parts beer, three parts foam, and one part empty space. This refreshing and lighter pour allows for greater enjoyment of additional beer or food during a gathering.

Lastly, the Mlíko style features a mug brimming with sweet and creamy foam, which accentuates the hops and aromatic qualities of the beer. This style is traditionally savoured as a dessert beer.
