The brewery is located in Malý Rohozec, near Turnov, less than a hundred kilometers northeast of Prague. The local romantic region, located on the middle course of the Jizera River, has been called the Bohemian Paradise since the 19th century. It is a region of natural beauty, castles, chateaux, museums and traditional crafts. And also good people, and these people produce good beer for you in the traditional way: Beer of the Paradise. Not only the locals, but also visitors to the Bohemian Paradise, tourists, climbers and other nature lovers, SKALÁK beer and the sandstone rock town in the Hruboskalsko region are connected. . The beautiful, picturesque nature and pleasant, fresh taste of Skalák and Podskalák simply belong together.

After the end of communism and the split of Czechoslovakia, the brewery came into private hands in 1994 who however without the know-how for running a brewery. This resulted in bankruptcy in 2002, the brewery was very outdated and the debt burden very high and yet it was taken over. The production process was examined and everything was renewed, resulting in a high quality of brewed beer.

On tap at Drugie Dno in Warsaw. Clear and light amber bright color, medium white foam. Nose: nothing off in this Bohemian lager, but aroma is quite hidden. Mouth: malty, medium to high carbonation, saaz oily mouthfeel, moderately bitter. Good.

Bottle. Pours clear, slightly darker blonde. Small white head. Smell is malty, fresh, mild diacetyl. Taste is full, malty, crisp, mild bitter touch. Rather high levels of diacetyl, such as the style usually has. Still very enjoyable though. I do kinda like Czech lagers.

Lahev (@beershop.cz, Jungbunzlau): Golden, a bit unclear, small but stable white foamy layer; typical buttery-bready nose with spicy-hoppy spots; mild to moderate bitter-sweet flavour, light bodied - as expected, not really soft; gently lingering bitter-bready finish. Well balanced, just a bit thin...

Lahev: Very deep golden coloured with a reddish sheen - "diky přidání 'červeného' sladu" - firm and creamy off-white head with pinkish(!) sheen, bready-malty nose with a herbal-peppery hoppiness in the background, a buttery touch included; moderate bitter-sweet flavour, nearly medium bodied, pretty soft; lingering bitter-sweet finish of bready malt and peppery hops. A fine, well balanced drop. Velmí dobré pivo...

(bottle) Hazy, deep golden to amber colour with a firm and medium-sized, slightly tanned foamy head. Bready malty aroma with notes of caramel, as well as grassy and slightly earthy and almost sprucey hops. Mildly sweet and slightly bitter flavour, light to medium bodied with a smooth carbonation. Bready malt character with traces of caramel, minerals, backed by present grassy and earthy hops, lingering into the sweet-bitter finish. Something nicely different. 17.IX.18
