Beer Culture in Plzeň and Pilsner Fest 2010

4 comments

Just over a week ago I went to Plzeň to join a group of British beer writers — Adrian Tierney-Jones, Mark Dredge, Pete Brown and Tim Hampson — at Pilsner Fest 2010. In addition to the festive, carnival-like atmosphere at giants Pilsner Urquell and Gambrinus, we also visited craft brewers and new brewpubs, as well as historic dives and dingy bars, to make a short film about beer culture in one of Europe’s greatest brewing cities.

  4. Take the train or catch a bus. Prague to Pilsen will take about an hour. The journey is worth it. Experience the new world of beer. Enjoy the beers, relish the bars and just have a good time. Pilsen is a true city of beer culture.
