Supplier: Beers of Europe
Bohemia Regent is a Czech family owned brewery set up in 1379. This is there tmavý ležák 12 (Dark Lager 12° - where 12° refers to the density of the beer before fermentation). This came second in its category in the "Ceska pivni pecet Tabor" (Czech Beer Seal Camp). This uses only Saaz hops and water from their own artisan wells. I served this at room temperature.

Appearance: Quite dark but lets light through when held to it. A thin off-white head that dissipates quickly.
Aroma: A mix of Marmite and liquorice, weird but strangely intriguing. Some fruity notes.
Flavour: Creamy on the front with some roasted notes, leading into a salty
liquorice taste. These develop into a constant vanilla creamy note with a hint of toast.
Body: Very smooth and perfectly carbonated.
Aftertaste: A Marmite taste which turns into a more roasted and creamy note.
Overall: Therefore this gets a rating of 6, nice malty notes with no hops, decent to drink but nothing special.
Price Range: £2.49 for a 500ml bottle, an OK price for what it is, worth it.
Food Pairings: I think it would go well with a Charcuterie platter, or with a spicy stew with chorizo.
