The brewery was established by baron František Ringhoffer in 1874. Since the very beginning the brewery has always had a live mascot, a goat behind its fence. The current goat is named Olda and he is actually on the brewery’s employee list.

In March 1999, the merger of Plzeňský Prazdroj, as with Pivovar Radegast, as the former majority owner of the Velké Popovice brewery, took place. Since 2016 it is part of the Asahi Group.

Italian version. Brown color with a bubbly tan hea, fair persistence. Flavor of roasted malt, cereal, hints of caramel and grass. Taste flattish. Light body grainy finish, fairly dry. It's ok for the style

33cl bottle at the train station of Bari, Italy. Pours golden, fairly transparent, with a nice head of fine white foam. Aroma is cereal, some honey too. Body and carbonation are average. Taste is rather bitter for a lager, even a little unbalanced, I'd say. Final is still fairly bitter, though not that long.

0,5 flaske (bb 240323) fra Petros kjøleskap, delt med ham hjemme hos meg: lett uklar gylden med skum. Lett floral aroma og smak med urter, lett besk citrus, lynghonning og fin bitterhet i avslutningen.
