Deze brouwerij heb ik helaas niet bezocht. Wel heb ik de Svètlé Pivo en de Světlé Výčepní gedronken. Op het etiket staat CZECH BEER. Het doet wat commercieel aan, maar aan de andere kant ook authentiek. Wat kan ik erover vinden op internet?

Czech beer is globally recognized for its quality, and Bohemia Regent holds a special place within this tradition. As the second-oldest brewery in the Czech Republic, it embodies the continuity of brewing culture across more than six centuries. Unlike many industrial breweries, Bohemia Regent has retained a strong connection to its regional identity. Its beers are deeply rooted in local ingredients, historical methods, and the cultural heritage of South Bohemia. The brewery also illustrates the broader story of Czech brewing: medieval origins, aristocratic patronage, industrial growth, wartime struggle, socialist nationalization, and post-communist revival. Pivovar Bohemia Regent is far more than just a brewery—it is a living monument to Czech history and craftsmanship. From its medieval beginnings in 1379 to its modern role as an exporter of traditional Czech beer, the brewery has endured wars, political upheavals, and economic transformations while remaining true to its roots. Today, it stands as a bridge between past and present, offering visitors and beer lovers alike a taste of authentic Czech brewing heritage. Whether enjoyed in a glass on a sunny terrace overlooking the Svět pond or exported abroad as a symbol of Czech quality, Bohemia Regent continues to carry forward a legacy that has been centuries in the making. https://beertourist.cz/czech-breweries/introducing-czech-breweries-part-13-bohemia-regent/

At the heart of Bohemia Regent lies a dedication to traditional Czech brewing techniques. The brewery uses high-quality local ingredients, including Žatec (Saaz) hops, renowned worldwide for their delicate aroma and bitterness, as well as carefully selected Czech malts. The brewery produces a diverse range of beers, reflecting both tradition and innovation. Its core lineup includes: Pale draft beers (10°) Pale lagers (11°) Premium pale lager (12°) Dark lager (12°) Yeast (unfiltered) beer Semi-dark lager “Petr Vok” Strong specialty beers such as “Prezident” and “Kníže” In addition to these classics, Bohemia Regent has embraced modern trends with specialty brews such as oat-based IPA (“Escobeer”). This balance between heritage and experimentation has helped the brewery remain relevant in a competitive global beer market. https://beertourist.cz/czech-breweries/introducing-czech-breweries-part-13-bohemia-regent/

Bohemia Regent Premium This classic Czech lager is the flagship beer of the Bohemia Regent brewery. We use only the best Saaz hops and Moravian barley, soft low salt water from our own artesian wells and pure cultures of bottom fermentation yeast strains. Double decoction mashing and 90 day secondary fermentation in the centuries old brewery cellars deliver a beautifully balanced, lightly carbonated lager- easy on the mouth hoppiness and medium bitterness.  https://czechbeeralliance.co.uk/breweries/bohemia-regent/

Bohemia Regent lagers, especially the Bohemia Regent 12, represent a unique and authentic South Bohemian Real Lager, boasting a delightful combination of bitterness and sweetness. The brewery achieves a flawless harmony between hops and malt, showcasing a commitment to the traditional Bohemian brewing process, which involves double mashing and an extended maturation period. For those interested in experiencing this firsthand, the brewery offers tours that are highly recommended for both beer enthusiasts and history lovers alike. https://czechbeeralliance.co.uk/breweries/bohemia-regent/

Bohemia Regent Glassblower's Lager This lager is deeply rooted in Bohemian history with session lagers being brewed for local glassworks since the early 1860s and it is no coincidence that Bohemia Regent owners also own glassworks. What is sure, the Regent brewmaster Jaromir, has just nailed it. It is hoppy and crisp with a pleasant light but bready malt base as is the rule with Bohemian lagers. And, surprisingly, it is full body! https://czechbeeralliance.co.uk/breweries/bohemia-regent/

Brouwerij Bohemia Regent Weinig brouwerijen in Midden-Europa kunnen bogen op een traditie zoals die van de brouwerij in Třeboň, opgericht in 1379. https://www.jiznicechy.cz/nl/targets/2216-brouwerij-bohemia-regent

De oudste bierproductiefaciliteit hier was al in 1367 eigendom van het Augustijnenklooster. Het bier uit Třeboň werd steeds bekender en verwierf geleidelijk ook een goede reputatie buiten de landsgrenzen.

De handelsnaam "Regent" is geïnspireerd op de historische figuur van ridder Jakub Krčín van Jelčany (1533–1604), die aanvankelijk een Rosenberg-functionaris was en later regent werd van het enorme domein van Vilém van Rosenberg, de ongekroonde koning van het hele Koninkrijk Bohemen. https://www.jiznicechy.cz/nl/targets/2216-brouwerij-bohemia-regent

Pivovar Bohemia Regent: A Living Legacy of Czech Brewing Tradition In the picturesque South Bohemian town of Třeboň stands one of the oldest continuously operating breweries in Central Europe: Pivovar Bohemia Regent. With a brewing tradition dating back to 1379, the brewery represents not only a cornerstone of Czech beer culture but also a living testament to centuries of craftsmanship, resilience, and innovation. Today, Bohemia Regent remains a symbol of authenticity in a country renowned worldwide for its brewing excellence.... The history of brewing in Třeboň stretches deep into the medieval period. The earliest documented mention of beer production in the town dates back to 1379, placing Bohemia Regent among the oldest breweries in the Czech Republic. Even before that date, evidence suggests that brewing activities were already underway in the region, including production by an Augustinian monastery as early as 1367. During the Middle Ages, Třeboň hosted multiple brewing sites, including a monastery brewery, a castle brewery, and a burgher brewery located near the town hall. These establishments reflected the importance of beer as both a staple beverage and a valuable economic commodity. However, a major turning point came in 1781, when a devastating fire destroyed much of the town. After this catastrophe, only one brewery remained—the aristocratic Schwarzenberg brewery, which would later evolve into today’s Bohemia Regent. https://beertourist.cz/czech-breweries/introducing-czech-breweries-part-13-bohemia-regent/

The surviving brewery was closely tied to noble ownership, particularly the influential Schwarzenberg family. Its physical structure dates back to 1699–1712, when it was built outside the town walls on the site of a former Rosenberg armory. The Rosenbergs, one of the most powerful noble families in Bohemia, had already shaped the region’s identity, and their legacy continued through the brewery’s development. Over time, the facility underwent expansions and architectural modifications, especially in the 19th century, when it was redesigned according to plans by architects Jakub Maggi and Pavel Ignác Bayer. https://beertourist.cz/czech-breweries/introducing-czech-breweries-part-13-bohemia-regent/

The brewery’s name, “Regent,” is inspired by the historical figure Jakub Krčín of Jelčany, a prominent 16th-century regent who managed vast estates for Vilém of Rosenberg. His association with the region symbolizes authority, stewardship, and prosperity—values that continue to define the brewery today. https://beertourist.cz/czech-breweries/introducing-czech-breweries-part-13-bohemia-regent/

The 19th century marked a period of industrial growth for Bohemia Regent. Like many European breweries, it modernized its production processes while preserving traditional brewing techniques. By the early 20th century, the brewery had reached significant production levels, reportedly exceeding 100,000 hectoliters annually before the outbreak of World War I. However, global events soon disrupted this progress. The collapse of the Austro-Hungarian Empire after World War I led to the loss of key export markets, particularly in Austria. During World War II, production declined further due to wartime restrictions and economic hardship. By 1945, the brewery was struggling to recover, facing both material shortages and structural challenges.... After World War II, the brewery was nationalized along with other major industries in Czechoslovakia. It became part of the state enterprise Jihočeské pivovary (South Bohemian Breweries). During the communist period, the brewery continued production but operated within a centrally planned economy. While this ensured survival, it often limited innovation and international expansion. Nonetheless, Bohemia Regent maintained its reputation for quality, thanks to the enduring Czech brewing tradition and the use of local ingredients such as Saaz hops and Czech malt.  https://beertourist.cz/czech-breweries/introducing-czech-breweries-part-13-bohemia-regent/

A new chapter began after the fall of communism in 1989. The brewery underwent privatization and, in 2000, became the property of the joint-stock company Bohemia Regent. This transition allowed the brewery to modernize its operations, expand its product range, and re-establish itself in both domestic and international markets. Despite these changes, Bohemia Regent has remained committed to traditional brewing methods, preserving its historical identity while adapting to contemporary demands. Today, the brewery exports its beers to numerous countries across Europe and beyond, including Germany, Italy, the United Kingdom, and even markets as distant as the United States and Vietnam. https://beertourist.cz/czech-breweries/introducing-czech-breweries-part-13-bohemia-regent/

The South Bohemian town of Třeboň is a lovely old town with approximately 8,500 inhabitants. It is situated near the Austrian border, between České Budějovice and Jindřichův Hradec, in the charming, slightly undulating landscape of the Třeboň basin, in a landscape of deep forests, large meadows and countless big and small fish ponds. https://www.itrebon.cz/clanky/about-trebon_51.html

For the unique beauty of its historical centre Třeboň was declared an urban conservation area in 1976 and since 1960 it has the status of spa town. Thanks to its cultural and spa tradition, its richness of historical monuments and natural beauties and its location amidst the Protected Landscape Area (CHKO) Třeboňsko and UNESCO Biosphere Reserve it has become one of the most popular destinations for tourists both from home and abroad, as well as one of the most popular destinations within the Czech Republic. ... The original town coat of arms of Třeboň was documented on seals as early as the 14th century. It gained its present appearance in 1556. On the blue background there is a low silver castle wall with crenellation. Above the wall there are two silver towers. Each of the towers has a high Gothic window in its lower part and two smaller windows in the upper part, battlements and a red roof with a golden finial. Between the towers above the wall there is a silver shield with the Rosenberg five-petalled red rose and the same sign is also on the banner. https://www.itrebon.cz/clanky/about-trebon_51.html

De feodale brouwerij, gebouwd volgens de plannen van de Schwarzenbergse bouwer Jakub Maggi en met een belangrijke bijdrage van Pavel Ignác Bayer, staat sinds het begin van de 18e eeuw op de plek van Petr Voks Rosenbergse wapenkamer. Het gebouwencomplex werd later uitgebreid en gemoderniseerd. De huidige indeling dateert uit de tweede helft van de 19e eeuw. De oudste vermelding van brouwen in de stadskronieken dateert al van 1379, toen er maar liefst tien mouterijen in Třeboň waren. Aan het einde van de 15e eeuw waren er drie brouwerijen – bij het kasteel, het klooster en in de stad. De handelsnaam van de brouwerij in Třeboň, Bohemia Regent, is geïnspireerd op de historische figuur van Jakub Krčín van Jelčany, die regent was van het Rosenbergse domein. Het lokale bier heeft talloze prijzen gewonnen, zowel in binnen- als buitenland. Zuivere ingrediënten, traditionele Tsjechische bereidingswijzen en de modernste technologieën vormen de basis voor goede kwaliteit. Een bijzonderheid van de brouwerij is de stenen fontein met biertaps, waaruit het Třeboň Regent-bier bij feestelijke gelegenheden wordt getapt. https://www.itrebon.cz/vylety/bohemia-regent-brewery_295.html
