Chernihivske is the most popular and favorite beer for millions of  Ukrainians.

It is named after city Chernihiv, the location of the first brewery that produced Chernihivske, although the beer is also produced nowadays in the Ukrainian cities of Mykolaiv and Kharkiv. 

In 2018 Chernihivske celebrates its 30th anniversary. Chernihivske appeared as a gift from the brewery to its native town Chernihiv in 1988, when the city celebrated its 1300th anniversary. Chernihivske was the first beer in the USSR, which recipe was developed according to the European standards.
