Encompassing over 200 years of Czech brewing heritage, Praga Authentic Czech Beer is as real as it gets.
Our native brewmaster crafts the finest all-natural local ingredients to create award-winning beverages available around the globe.
The people of the Czech Republic drink more beer per capita than anyone else in the world. It is an integral part of Czech culture and they set the highest standards for the quality of their national drink. That’s why Praga beer is brewed using time-honored methods, such as open vat fermenters and 50to--60 day lagering periods (4x longer than most macrobrews). The result is a smooth, refreshing beverage that the people of the Czech Republic can be proud to call their own.
Our yeast strains have been developed over the past 150 years, perfect for fermenting the beer and providing old-world quality to every sip.
The artesian wells below the brewery contain extremely soft water that has been described as perfect for brewing lager beer. As water comprises 90-to-95% of the beer, it is the most important ingredient.
Locally grown barley is turned into malt at the brewery's own malt house, giving the brewmaster better control over the quality of malt used in the brewing.
The Czech city of Saaz ('Zatec') grows the finest hops in the world. It gives the beer a distinct floral aroma and pleasant bitterness.
