Description
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 This resulted in bankruptcy in 2002, the brewery was very outdated and the debt burden very high and yet it was taken over.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.

Bei einem 10-jährigen Klassentreffen an einem See 🚣 in Poděbrady getrunken. Früher gab es hier mal Himbeerbier aus der gleichen Brauerei von dem man auf dieses umgestiegen ist. Es ist auch dieses ein klassisches Gutelaune-Sommerbier. Nicht sonderlich aromatisch, aber fruchtsüß und sehr süffig. Nux für Gourmets, aber als etwas anderes Strandbier durchaus ok.

Tap near Valdštejn castle. Golden colour, rocky head that disappears after a while, poor lacing. Aroma is butterscotch, malt, white bread crust, a bit of grassy hops. Light bitterness. Lively carbonation. Too buttery and overcarbonated, boring.

Optisch zeigt sich dieses Bier klar und schön goldgelb mit angemessener feiner Perlage. Die weiße, fein- bis mittelporige Schaumkrone gibt sich dabei sehr flaumig und überaus langlebig. In der Nase vernimmt man leicht getreidiges, zart hefiges, sowie ein sehr typisches, leicht butteriges Aroma. Der Antrunk kommt weichspritzig und sowohl süßlich malzig, als auch gut herb. Am Gaumen präsentiert sich ein mäßiger Körper mit leichter, süßlicher und getreidiger Malzaromatik, einer schönen Würze und einer dazu passenden Herbe. Die butterige Note schwelt sehr zart im Hintergrund. Auch wenn sich das Gesamtbild relativ einfach zeigt, ist es absolut stimmig und richtig gut. Mundgefühl und Süffigkeit darf man bei diesem Bier sogar als sehr gut bezeichnen. Für mein Empfinden etwas underrated. Im Nachtrunk schwinden die malzigen Noten langsam und eine leicht trockene bis angenehm aromatische Hopfenherbe stellt sich ein. Mein Fazit: Dieses Bier spiegelt den Inbegriff eines typischen Pilseners wieder.

Bottle at the flat in Sofia - picked up from Da Hapna. A gusher! Lost about half the bottle. Tastes alright, though. Pours clear gold with a moderate, foamy white head. Lightly sweet with notes of sun-kissed biscuits, pale grains, a little yeast, honey, straw. Light bodied with massaging carbonation. Bready-biscuity finish, mild grass, toasted hay. Very drinkable stuff.

Bottled (from Prisma, Vaasa). Hazy orangeish yellow colour, mediumsized foamy white head. Aroma is spicy, some citrus, earth,mild rotten vegetables and melted rubber. Flavour is mild citrus, some soapy tones with mild wheat feel to it. Also bready and grainy notes. Not that refreshing.
