Overview: This is the second time I’ve been to Prague’s Pivovarsky Klub and the second time I have tried Štěpán. This beer is available both in Pivovarsky Dum and Klub, possibly brewed by another brewery (Pivovar Kacov); it does say on the bar menu that this is from Pivovarsky Dum so I will go [...]

You will never see a review of A-B Budweiser on this site (reason: It is simply dreadful, although my opinion of it does improve when comparing it to, say, Tiger Beer). However, I have never been one to believe all US beers are dreadful, and here are two articles that go someway to support that [...]
