Description
Staropramen Brewery's history begins in 1869 when a corporation was formed on September 6, 1869, The brewery building was completed and beer first brewed in 1871 and the brand name Staropramen, literally meaning “old spring”, was registered in 1911.

Extensive modernization took place from 1933 to 1937 lead by masterbrewer Josef Paspa. The fermentation rooms with cooling vessels and large wooden barrels were replaced with modern steel tanks. In 1933, thanks to its volume of 800,000 hl of produced beer, the brewery became the biggest brewery in Czechoslovakia.

With socialism after the Second World War Staropramen was nationalised. After socialism ended in 1989, the brewery, along with the Braník and Měšťan breweries, became in 1992 part of the Prague Breweries group (Pražské Pivovary), which by 1996 came under control of the Bass company. Bass brought Ostravar into the group in 1997, then in 2000 sold its brewing operations to Interbrew, later AB InBev. In April 2012, Staropramen was bought by Molson Coors

16/8/2024. Can from Šamon Grand Wine & Liquor Store, Sarajevo. Pours close to black with a deep ruby tint and a small frothy light beige head. Good pour. Aroma is roasted malt, chocolate, toffee, toasted, hint of liquorice. Medium sweetness, moderate bitterness and body. Oily with average carbonation. Developing sweet finish. Quite nice.

Can picked up from Kaufland, Passau had this sat out in the garden Friday 16th August 2024 listening to some new tracks from Mercury Rev cooking Italian Burgers with a Tomato & Mozzarella Salad. Pours mid gold with a large white head, nice softness, a little sweet but there is some late arriving bitterness. Malty with a little cereal edge, very drinkable, it's decent.
