RE: Praha or Prague drink on a beer Saturday

Oh, this one :)) We have literally hundreds of better breweries than Staropramen in the Czech Republic, some 50 of them in the captial :) The good ones don't often get exported, and if so, you'd only buy them in dedicated beer stores. But they are worth sampling. Staropramen is just... well, a shabby industrial brew which is often cheaper than water.

That is the problem, you can only buy what is stocked in your local corner shop. I remember during our Brewing module at university finding out that most good beers should be not drunk more than a few miles from where they are brewed, as that is when they are at their best. One reason why micro breweries have become so popular..

The other is they actually care about the brewing process, don't save on ingedients, and are not afraid to produce batches of same beer with a tad different tastes.

I don't know about the Scottish situation, but the difference among industrial and craft brews here in Czechia is huge.
