Hi, hello from the Czech Republic. The Praga brewery doesn't exist as such. The Praga beer brand is just a trade name. This beer is produced for Praga Pils in several breweries around the Czech Republic (e.g. Zubr, Samson, Litovel). It is more of an export beer that tries to attract attention by referring to the reputation of Czech beer. In the Czech Republic you can find it basically only in touristic places, especially in Prague. I personally have never seen it on tap anywhere, always just bottles or cans. Ironically, I bought my first Praga beer in Hungary.
Interesting, that helps clear up some of my confusion regarding that particular beer!
I'd just like to point out, as a resident of České Budějovice, that the main competitor for Budvar isn't called pivovar. Pivovar means brewery and therefore I presume he meant some other company (in the context of České Budějovice most likely Samson), and just missread their name.
Thanks, that actually really clears a lot of what was confusing me when I was researching this video. Yes, then Samson was the brewery I was meant.
We get this in limited quantities in Australia under the original name Budvar. It's printed on the label "Brewed and canned by Budejovicky in the Czech Republic" From the research I have done that these guys are the original owners of the recipie and have been brewing it successfully and continuously for the longest. There is a video I watched of a tour that their head brewer states that any can of Budvar comes from their brewery there in the Czech republic as that is the ONLY place that Budvar is brewed under license anywhere in the world. So all Budvar branded beer is original from Czech republic, all others are imitations.
As for Budweiser, we get that too here in Australia although I would confidently say its brewed under license and can say that I have never consumed a Budweiser due to the history that I am aware of it. The Czech own the recipie in my opinion.
Interesting!
We also have praga and it's cheap and delicious
@@rollei35mm Praga is certainly both those things.
great video! i hope i could shed some light on the abnormally weak hoppiness of the budvar - the budvar "original's" recipe is pretty much a cultural heritage that cannot be alternated by the producer, therefore the taste can be a little different to other pilsners - for example the Original's IBU is only 22, while Pilsner Urquell is 38. The Original is overall trying to achieve a different flavor palette, its even trying to highlight this difference in the serving techniques - while almost all pilsner beers are supposed to be served with pretty high carbonation (to highlight the hoppiness), Budvar Original is supposed to be poured "na dvakrát" to break up the carbonation - i highly recommend trying that this way!
That's very interesting stuff, thanks! What does na dvakrát mean?
@@ontapchannel na dvakrát means (poured) twice, but more times you pour it, the better. i found this tutorial video about it, its in czech only, but you'll get the idea: ruclips.net/video/9erq8GQ6p5s/видео.html
@@ighm7980 That's very interesting, I just watched the video and see what you mean about pouring it multiple times. Very interesting, thanks for the link!
Cheers!!
I tried Budvar "on tap" from a tavern in Vienna, Austria--just down the street from my hotel. It was good, but not great. My favorite is Wurzburger Hofbrau from the barrel.
I'm not sure if I can find Wurzburger Hofbrau where I live, but I'll keep my eyes open for it.
In the Czech Republic, most people prefer Pilsner Urquell to Budvar because Budvar is "too sweet and not bitter enough". That is why Budvar is only the 4th largest in the Czech Republic even though it has the second largest exports.
Praga probably has nothing to do with the Břevnov brewery. The monastery's brewery is called Břevnov Monastery Brewery of St. Vojtech. I recommend a visit if you're ever in Prague.
In general, if you want really good beer in the Czech Republic, it's better to try one of the many small craft breweries that have sprung up in this country since the end of communism. Most of the big breweries brew practically only very similar tasting pilsners.
Very interesting, especially about Czechs preferring bitter beer. Yes it does seem from other commenters that Praga is some form of marketing, not it's own company.
@@ontapchannel They say they prefer bitter beer, but they actually prefer pilsners with an IBU of around 35, which isn't that much compared to IPAs, for example. Older generations only drink pilsners because in the communist era nothing else was brewed except black lagers.
@@Nhkg17 Sure, even a Pilsner Urquell is not at IPA-level bitterness (hence why I still like it). Didn't know that about only black lagers during communism...
@@ontapchannel I probably wrote it wrong, during the communist era Pils AND black lagers were brewed. But those black lagers were mostly drunk by women, and there weren't many of them.
@@Nhkg17 That makes sense, yeah.
Praga is a latin variant of the name Prague and its pronounced with G, Czech variant is Praha pronounced id H...there is no variant (latin, czech, german etc.) where is the name of Prague pronounced with CH (or KH)
That's interesting, I hadn't known about the G/H pronunciation in Czech until reading about it for this video.
@@ontapchannel H and G is czech language is pronounced the same like in german language. ;)
@@ontapchannel Czech isnt that hard to speak. how its written thats how you say it...simple as that :D English and French could learn from that.
Well….its not really on tap. Is it. Big difference between bottled beers and beers on tap
its so sad that the american company is allowed to use the name, its been in court for years.. its not even close in taste. probably one of the worst beers of all time along side stella anf carlsberg. the real, original is a proper pivo. it taste great and is owned by the people. not a greedy corp
Agreed, real (Czech) Budweiser is far superior.
