Another favorite: the brewpub Richter Brewery (Pivovar u Bulovky, Bulovka 17, Praha 8 - Liben). Ditto Pivni Galerie, a good local beer store (www.pivnigalerie.cz; U Pruhonu 9, Praha 7). The brewpub inside U Medvidku (Na Perstyne 7, Praha 1, www.umedvidku.cz) makes two very good beers using traditional oak barrels. There are about 1,000 great pubs in Prague, too. I'm sure you'll have a great time here. Ciao, Andreea — as always, I’d recommend:

Oktoberfest doesn't charge an entry fee (half the fun is just walking around seeing everything that is there), and while the beer is expensive, they make it special: beer is only served in liter mugs and all the breweries brew special "Oktoberfest beer." Unless something is posted about how great an experience it is, I'm probably going to skip this-- too much money for beer I could have at one of the many great pubs in Prague. Now if Pilsner or Budvar brought their Kvasnicove pivo... that would be a different story.

It's not that expensive, though, 120Kc. I do have an issue, though, with the price of the pints, 39Kc is a tad too much. Anyway, hope to smaller breweries do well, otherwise the organisers might not buy them next year. Yeah, the entry fee. It’s not that expensive, though, 120Kc.

Does that mean that you'll be signing copies of the book? :) Nice lineup by the way, a bit better than I expected. “I’ve just been told that copies of Good Beer Guide: Prague and the Czech Republic should be available for purchase somewhere on the festival grounds.”
