The annual microbrewery festival took place this past weekend in the Prague Castle gardens, highlighting 50 of the best microbreweries from every end of Czechia. Each year, the festival draws in thousands of beer lovers, local and tourists alike who are keen to try the budding new flavours of Czech brews.

The pouring of cold beers, the clinking of glasses, and happy chatter as folks sipped on craft brews was the soundtrack of this past weekend’s microbrewery festival in the Prague Castle gardens. Thousands of Prague residents and tourists gathered in the gardens to sample the work of 50 microbreweries from across Czechia. Jillian Frantz, an American student living in Prague, explains how she heard about the festival.

“We heard from a local tour guide in Prague that this festival was like his personal Christmas, and that we should definitely come check it out. So we thought, we definitely have to go if it’s like his personal Christmas!”
