6 reviews for Pivovar Berounsky Medved
| MiP (13), Sønderborg, Denmark | | January 28, 2009 Close to the train station, but quite hard to find. I am wondering if the address is right at all. My GPS led me to the other side of the river, but in fact it is just a few hundred metres from the train station. It seems to be on the premises of a scrap yard. Seriously. Inside it is nice and the atmosphere is friendly. Average food. | | Glouglouburp (214), Montreal, Quebec | | October 1, 2008 I won’t try to make a good description of this pub location. Middle of nowhere loses its meaning here, you don’t even know where nowhere is when you get to this pub. In the middle of a scrap yard. Old rusty WWII tank and weapons on one side and a huge pile of detritus on the other, the view is like nothing you have ever seen. Interior is surprisingly warm and unsurprisingly authentic. IMPORTANT: From what we understood this brewpub doesn’t brew off-season. We were there in April and they only had two decent guest beers on tap. Supposedly they start brewing in May, I don’t know when they stop. 60 to 80 can sit on each of the two floors (upstairs was closed when we were there). Extensive food menu, very greasy, my goulash was below average. This place is a must, not for the beer, not for the food, not for the ambiance, but really for the location. Quite an experience. | | gnoff (127), Göteborg, Sweden | | July 8, 2008 Rather hard to find, even from the train station. Walk out from the main hall, turn left and then walk under the bridge. Strange surroundings with old tanks and stuff. OK food and beers. Quite cheap to buy take-away PET-bottles. Nice detour when going by train between Prague and Plzen. | | MartinT (348), Montreal, Quebec | | May 4, 2008 [ Updated June 29, 2008 ] A memorable brewpub, this is. As you walk in the direction you were told to walk, you constantly ask yourself: it can’t be here, can it? A muddy side road, huge apparently-abandoned buildings with broken windows, olden trucks, scrap everywhere...and a sign of a bear with a pint of beer with an arrow confirming you are on the right track. Following this sign, you soon encounter an old tank, heaps of wood, canons, and...scrap everywhere. Oh, and this white building in the middle of it all. Fascinating. The dark wooden interior with sculptures in the walls is strikingly beautiful and cozy for the area. The place was amazingly crowded for a mid-week lunch. The only downside was there weren’t any house beers available that day and we weren’t able to get an explanation from the Czech-speaking waitress. She was still able to tell us the house beers were coming back in May. In the meantime, they were serving Klaster’s 10-degree Svetlé and Chodovar’s Tmavé. Pints were 17Kc, so 1$ at the time I’m writing this. The smoked duck in a potato pancake I had was delicious, if not extremely fat. I’d come back here anytime just for the experience, but also because they must be brewing quite ’’natural’’ lagers here... | | pivnizub (273), Bochum, Porúří, Germany | | October 6, 2007 Set amidst old tanks, rotten buildings and scrap metal, this small brew-pub is nevertheless worth a detour. Located only a few steps from the Beroun railway-stati, it is a good place for a break when You are travelling by slow trains from Prague to Pilsen....... | | Quack-Duck (99), Bodensee/Schwarzwald, Germany | | May 26, 2007 restaurant next to the brewery and next to the scrap metal store. Good food, excellent beer. 3 different beers on tap, pale lager, Dunkel and half-dark (polotmavy). In the building next to the restaurant there is a nonstop beershop open 24hours a day, where you can buy al beers in 1,5l bottles. Friendly staff and the brewery is conveniently situated near the D5 motorway from Plzen to Prague. |
