Regent Český granát

Tap to rate

Intense and full of unusual, mainly fruity notes, with pronounced fullness and a breadiness that comes from rye. The top-fermenting yeast strain adds to that character. Billed as the first rye beer on the market in modern times and one of the first brewed from organic raw materials, this 12.9° beer uses four organic malts: rye plus pale, Bavarian and caramel barley malts.

◌ Aroma

The nose opens with pronounced fruity esters from the top-fermenting yeast—ripe stone fruits and subtle apple notes dominate. Beneath lies a distinctive breadiness from rye, accompanied by light caramel sweetness and a soft, grainy undertone. There is minimal hop presence; instead, the aromatic character is driven by malt and fermentation character.

◐ Taste

The palate enters with full, rounded body and immediate breadiness that defines the drinking experience. Fruity notes echo the aroma while caramel sweetness and malty depth provide balance. Mild bitterness (28 IBU) remains restrained, allowing the rye's distinctive grainy texture and yeast-derived character to remain in the foreground throughout the mid-palate.
