A house first recorded in 1649
Craft beer means work done by hand
Nothing here comes off a production line. We brew the beer, bottle it and stick on the labels ourselves. That lets us try styles you won't find in an ordinary pub and keep changing what's on tap.
It all happens in a house once owned by a butcher called Thomas Lanius. The brewery is named after him.

What you can taste
Lager is only the beginning
In Slovakia most people think of beer as a pale lager. We love it too, but it's just one of many styles the world has to offer. Bit by bit we bring you all the important ones and their variations.
-
American
Lots of hops with aromas of citrus and tropical fruit. IPA is the classic example.
-
Belgian
The yeast gives them spicy, fruity aromas. A refreshing saison is one of them.
-
British
Balanced ales with a malty flavour and gentle bitterness, easy to enjoy all evening.
-
Irish
Dark beers made with roasted malt, with hints of coffee and dark chocolate, such as stout.
-
German
Wheat beers and other traditional styles from a country with a very long brewing history.
-
Specialities
Beers with fruit, milk stouts and other brews where the brewer can really play.
