sometimes we find ourselves in the middle of a story
that began centuries ago
and will go on for many more centuries,
it lasts longer than our own lives
and that’s why it’s much more important
just like at other times when we find ourselves
in the middle of a photograph, capturing one fleeting
moment that lasts forever,
when we’re engulfed by the moment,
when it takes hold of us
so we want to remember it forever
these experiences can be ours
as long as we see, feel and believe
A BOOK ABOUT THE ZÁBŘEH CHATEAU
daniela hradilová & daniel šíra, 2014
| you can find more on the history and
present of the chateau in the
NEWS section – updated every two weeks |
the tradition of brewing in zábřeh was revived in 2007 when we opened
the newly reconstructed chateau. the rich history of the site inspired the owners
and the head brewer to seek out old techniques of brewing used by our ancestors.
the brewery was ceremonially blessed on 28 september 2007,
on the day of st wenceslas – the patron saint of brewers.

A NATURAL, UNFILTERED AND UNPASTEURIZED BEER
WITH A SLIGHT YEAST RESIDUE
nine years of brewing our specials have proved the value of creating original beers from top-quality
natural ingredients using traditional methods – and now we know what your favourites are.
surprisingly, the first specials we brewed are still your favouritestoday – the chateau’s
calamus-infused 11° dark lager, created by our first master brewer václav baron
in september 2007, and the top-fermented ‘women’s’ wheat beer, a popular creation
by our current master brewer tomáš hub first brewed in 2009 (this is the first ‘weizen’ type beer
to be brewed in the region in modern times, and the first in europe to be targeted specifically at the fairer sex).
our now-traditional gluten-free special is also the first of its kind in the czech republic,
using complex technologies. another popular introduction is our
top-fermented 13° ale – the only ale-type beer brewed in moravia
what is PIKARD® like? we brew these classic beers using traditional methods –
we use no extracts or accelerators, we ensure all our ingredients are of top quality,
and we insist on only the finest red Bohemian hops from žatec. the beer has a rounded bitterness,
with a pure aroma of malt and hops. the brewery equipment was supplied by the pivo praha
company, and we are the sixth microbrewery in the czech republic to use the company’s technology.
our output is 1000hl per year. we use a copper brew kettle (capacity 5.5hl), which forms a centrepiece
to the beer hall. next to the kettle is the malthouse and store. the rest of the process takes
place in an extension containing cooling equipment, a hot water tank, three fermentation tanks,
five conditioning tanks and two tanks for the final product. thanks to the reconstruction of the entire site,
the beer is piped from the tanks to the beer hall taps through a pipe running under the courtyard.
