A technical historical monument, the steam-powered Brewery of Lobec near Mseno is a witness of the five-hundred-years old tradition of beer brewing in the Kokorin region. The first written reference to the brewery dates back to 1586, while the Renaissance core of the existing structure was built around 1600. Between 1894 and1897, Rudolf Cicvarek, a lawyer and owner of the estate, had the original modest artisanal manufactory - once possession of the local gentry of Veznik - rebuilt to become a steam-powered production unit. The project was authored by a renowned engineer, Johan Rosenberg. Since 2007, the premises are possessed by RIOFRIO architectural platform and the exemplary redevelopment and revival of the brewery as a tourist attraction of the Kokorinsko protected landscape area is in progress. The brewery was declared a cultural monument by the Ministry of Culture in 2009...

Kozal is an excellent Czech beer produced in the town of Velke Popovice about 20 miles from Prague. It is easy to get to on bus number 363 from Opatov metro station. The bus leaves from the flyover above the metro station (from the side of the road opposite where buses park up). The fare costs kc24 and you get off the bus at the Velke Popovice Pivovar stop which is shown on an electronic sign in the bus. On leaving the bus you can check return bus times from the timetable on the bus stop on the opposite side of the road. The brewery tour is interesting, informative and friendly covering both the history of the brewery and the brewing process. The brewery's symbol is a goat so it was good fun to both see the brewery goat and their white winter goat. Finally the highlight was a couple of samples in the historic cellar. The timings of tours in various languages can be found on Kozal's website and places can be booked in advance online. Bus times appear to be about 90 minutes before tour times and these can be checked on Prague public transport websites. Overall a great afternoon out from Prague that can easily be achieved on cheap public transport.
