The Brewer's Tale

Heritage

The Brewery

Ožujsko is brewed by Zagrebačka pivovara — the Zagreb Brewery — which dates to 1892. It is Croatia's best-selling beer and is now part of Molson Coors.

The Pour

A golden Croatian pale lager: soft bready malt balanced by a clean hop bitterness, finishing crisp and refreshing.

The Beer of the Vatreni

‘Ožujsko’ takes its name from the old Croatian word for March. It's the everyday national beer — and proudly tied to the Vatreni, Croatia's football team.

At The Table

With Croatian food: ćevapi, grilled meats, pašticada and fresh Adriatic seafood.
