The Bakalář 12° is the flagship of the traditional Czech brewery Rakovník, whose beer history dates back to the 15th century, and impresses as a cold-hopped premium lager beer with its distinctive and unmistakable hop intensity. It is characterized by a wonderful aroma of dried Saaz hop flowers and a rich color with dark golden reflections, with the smell and taste clearly dominated by the Žatec hop aroma, which gives the beer, alongside fresh citrus notes, a full, not too overpowering bitterness. The Bakalář 12° is the perfect choice for anyone seeking a high-quality, hop-focused, and aromatically complex Czech lager beer with a pronounced character, which convinces both as an ideal companion to hearty dishes such as roast pork, goulash, and traditional Bohemian cuisine, as well as a standalone enjoyment for those who appreciate beer with a distinctive hop profile and Bohemian brewing tradition.
