Žíznivá Žižkárna: The largest microbrewery festival
The biggest craft beer festival in South Bohemia is back! The area of Žižkarna in České Budějovice will come alive with another year of the festival Žíznivá Žižkárna. Get ready for a combination of top craft beer from dozens of microbreweries and a packed music programme of all genres. The perfect plan for a weekend of great taste, music and fun!
Thanks to the new concept of the event, you will be able to taste 60 to 80 unique beers from more than 40 breweries in one place.
The top domestic craft breweries will be represented - you can look forward to breweries such as Zichovec, Sibeeria, Clock, Permon, Raven, Chroust, Zlatá Kráva or Kynšperský zajíc. There will also be local South Bohemian names such as Obora, Bukovar or Hulvát.
You will not be deprived of foreign specials. From the world will arrive fruit bombs from Polish masters Funky Fluid, Nepomucen and Magic Road, Spanish Basqueland and the legendary Belgian cherry beer Kasteel Rouge will be available for purchase.
In addition to the beer, there will be a zone full of great food, the biggest sandpit in the city for relaxation and a genuine festival atmosphere, lovingly prepared by a group of local enthusiasts.
