From the land that invented Pilsner.

Just reading the headline is making me thirsty.

The majority of travellers to the Czech Republic rarely strike farther than Prague

Last I heard, 96% of Czechs outside of Prague lived in poverty. During my last visit to Prague, buildings and river bank walls were completely covered with graffiti.

Yes, I remember U Fleku “The Stain” when I visited over Easter holiday in 1990 after the Velvet Revolution (the commies lost power).

Over 500 years of brewing tradition, it was a great beer hall. In the 2 days that my buddy Franz Hayek and I stayed in Prague before going to his home town we must have eaten there about 5 times!

It was a crazy time, many East Germans in transit trying to get to the Green Border (with Austria) and of course the Russian troops were in the process of retreating back to the motherland.

I know this is a beer thread but politics were mentioned in the article. The guy that said he was better under communism explains a couple of things. I read recently where communists gained some seats of power in the Czech republic. The Czech Republic has “Free Stuff” democrats just like we do.

I like beer.
