Albert never smoked in the presence of his wife so country houses and palaces created smoking rooms so the Gentry didn’t have to be banished to the stables or

even the servants’ quarters (heaven forbid).

Czech Republic and our tank bier, Pilsner Urquell, was born.

The Czech people believe that Pilsner is best served fresh and unpasteurised.Fresh bier must be consumed within seven days. This is why we drive to the gated

brewery (above) every week. All so we can serve the freshest pint this side of the Danube. 175 years later and we believe it is still the best.
