hopIQ found 10 beers with the same bitter and malty character as Primátor 12 Fest Hořká. Fest Hořká 12 was launched in September 2025 as a deliberately bitter 12° lager of 5.1 %, which head brewer Pavel Novák describes as a return to the traditional Czech school. It is double-decocted from Czech and Munich malts and hopped three times with Saaz and Sládek. Deep golden in the glass, it combines a full malt body with notes of bread crust and light caramel, a fine herbal and floral hop aroma, brisk carbonation and a pronounced bitterness that lingers well into the finish. Ranked by flavour match rather than popularity.
