ABOUT THE BREWERY

Part of our hotel area is also a family mini brewery Zlatá kráva. We are farmers who, not only because of their love for beer, but also because of their long-standing presence in gastronomy, decided to restore the charm of the local, almost forgotten brewery in Nepomuk. The vision is to brew beer from quality ingredients, to deliver it to customers in the best quality and to be available not only in the Czech Republic. We want to achieve this mainly through our rich experience in gastronomy, farming and marketing.

How it began

At the beginning of this beer journey we are two families - the Sochor and the Sladek families. Together we started a family project in 2018 - the Golden Cow Brewery. We brew bottom-fermented and top-fermented beers and specials under the guidance of our brewer Žaneta Petružálková.

The roots of the Zlatá kráva brewery go back to the second half of the 19th century, where the Turks' Brewery originally stood on this site. In 1938, the building even served as a bottling plant for the Pilsner brewery. We bought the dilapidated building from the original owner, Ferdinand Jiskra, who at the age of 84 oversaw the first batch of Zlatá kráva beer brewed. The semi-dark 13 Jiskra is now brewed in his honour.

Brewery area

3. December 2018, the renovated brewery, whose history dates back to 1876, opened to the public. The brewery, located under the Zelená hora castle, is dominated by a 1000l brewhouse. It also includes a chalet, a lounge and the original vaulted lager cellars and storerooms. Annual production is 2500 hl. In the brewery we brew bottom and top fermented beers and specials, which are bottled in 20 l, 30 l and 50 l glass bottles and kegs.
