“Well this is an odd one. No internet presence, at all, must be brand new. It's basically beer store with, at the time of my visit, 2 Krušnohor beers on tap. The 12° was surprisingly a new tick for me, and it was in okay shape, though it took ages to pour (hah, slow pour pils! :D), the Videňský ležák 13° was the other. The selection echoes Bohemia Craft Beer's website - primarily Krušnohor, Permon and Rudohor, I guess there might have been some Volt, there was some Zichovec, some Poličský, some Rakovník... okay selection, and the prices didn't seem crazy... a couple of fridges + some shelves. A 2 table (one big and one small) patio, fine to drink a beer on. Caught the guy running the store while he was mid-call, but good service (though I hope they fix the beer taking a while to poor issue). Well, if you're on a tourist run through Czechia without being able to make bigger detours, this will be a solid pit stop, there were some seasonals and specials there too.“

“Hah. Now this is a special place. Where else would you find a souvenir shop specializing in woodcuts that's also a brewery? A teeny tiny brewery - basically a homebrewer (since 1998?6?) who became official a month or so ago! You can grab a beer to drink at the place (technically a standing table (or two) between the souvenirs, to go in a plastic cup, or to go in 0.5l plastic bottles. 40 or 45kč I think. They do 2x20l batches apparently. What I've had was a pretty dark 12° "světlé", which also happens to be an ale, well, but classically hopped, pretty solid (at least much more interesting that the Chotěboř "Karlštejn" is bound to be). An obvious must visit while in town, and a pretty special place, though it cannot score higher for obvious reasons.“
