History and distribution
The legendary “Krušovice” - beer that has been brewing since the 16th century, it was then that the law came out that aristocrats can brew beer on their farms, which Jiri Birka took advantage of. But the most important date for the plant was the purchase of it by Rudolf II in 1583, from that moment the formation of a truly royal quality of beer began. It is reliably known that from time to time the plant received requests from His Majesty himself, he asked for three barrels of light. Owner
The brewery ensured that exclusively the best quality raw materials were supplied for
beer production , and also ensured that production volumes increased.
Serious industrial production began only in the middle of the 18th century, when the brewery passed into the hands of Prince Fürstenberg, who equipped it with all the necessary modern equipment. From that moment, the popularity of Krušovice increased - beer began to be delivered not only to neighboring cities, but also to Germany, and production reached volumes unbelievable up to this point - 100 batches per year.

The owner changed again in 2007, he became the Dutch company Heineken. The Royal Brewery has been recognized as the largest exporter of Czech beer.
