Known for a full range of styles

Family brewery in Chodová Planá, built above ancient cellars hewn into granite. Legend says a dog named Albi found an abundant spring; the brewery still brews with it, and brewers have long seen Albi as the good spirit of the lager cellars. The oldest written record dates to 1573. The Plevka family, a brewing dynasty for a century and in Chodová Planá since 1962, has led the brewery since 1992. The grounds hold a rock-cellar restaurant, a small museum and a wellness hotel.

How we measure this

Two thresholds are at work here:

  • The signature list shows notes that recur in at least 6% of this brewery's beers. A low bar — enough to flag a pattern, not high enough to call it an exclusive trait.
  • The peer comparison below shows only notes where this brewery's coverage differs from similar breweries by at least 20 percentage points. A higher bar — enough to call a real difference, not a nudge.

A note can appear on the signature list without appearing in the peer comparison: it recurs here, but similar breweries do the same thing.
