Introduction

Plzen's Brewery Museum is a great place to explore the long, world-famous beer culture and brewing history of Plzen and the Czech Republic. The Czech Republic is among the world's highest beer consumers per capita, and Pilsen - birthplace of the Pilsner lager - is the heart of that culture. Set in an old Gothic building (once a citizen's house licensed to brew), the museum richly shows the history and craft of Czech brewing - medieval brewers' guilds, old equipment, malting and brewing, beer hall culture, glasses and coasters. Usually a historic beer hall or tasting lets you sample a draught after. Exploring it is a lively, fun cultural experience.
