About Us
History
Since the 15th century beer has been brewed commercially in Březnice, a small town 60 kilometers south of Prague. In this century, the Březnice brewery, originally part of a (now fully restored) castle formerly owned by the Kolowraty nobility, has produced and distributed excellent beer throughout Bohemia – today’s Czech Republic.
Following WWII, the brewery, or pivovar in Czech, was appropriated by the Government and became part of the state-owned Institute for Brewing and Malt Production, which insured continued traditions of classic Bohemian brewing. Now Pivovar Herold Březnice is operating under its first truly private ownership since 1945.

Service
As a small, traditional brewery, we value each and every customer – we wish to satisfy each and every one of our buyers and our drinkers. Quite simply, Herold is committed to the highest level of service, both for its Czech and international customers. Our beer is fresh – from tank to shelf in less than six weeks and we fully guarantee our product. We brew custom beers for special market tastes, and guarantee every beer. We also profit from the cost advantages of traditional production with the highest quality ingredients in the Czech Republic, the original home of pilsener-style beers. Our "small is beautiful" philosophy ensures satisfaction for each customer: wholesale and retail alike.
