Beer fans who make it to Prague before the weather turns will find exactly what they’ve been told to expect: a beautiful Old World city where classic Pilsner-style beers are everywhere, with hundreds of pubs serving excellent, easy-drinking lagers with 4 to 5 percent ABV.

But in a few spots, thirsty travelers might come across something unusual, and which is largely unknown outside the country: a growing array of compelling, low-alcohol beers that are generally only available during the summer months. With only about 2.8 to 3.8 percent ABV, these lagers are slightly weaker than most American light beers. But in terms of taste, they’re much burlier, packed with so much noble hop bitterness and aroma that they appear to violate basic brewing guidelines.
