BREWERY PURKMISTR Great brewery and restaurant in Černice The unmistakable atmosphere of Pivovarský dvůr Plzeň is created mainly by the copper brewery boilers located in the front part of the Restaurant I. The visitors have thus a unique opportunity to become familiar with the brewing technology. The neatly designed space was developed with respect to the historical value of the complex. The tap room is catered for directly from the lager tanks in the cellar that supply the whole range of our beers.
