For readers who want to throw some hard-earned beer money to the little guys, here's a list of places where Prague beer lovers can sample some of the Czech Republic's smaller brews.

Thanks for the correction. Cheers! -- Prague TV "Re: The Richter Brewery. I was there in May and it's a great place to go. I think it was either Sunday or Monday it was closed, and it's not the biggest of places, but the beer's super, especially the 'Spezial'. Food's good as well, so get there early and enjoy! Only a short walk off the tram (possibly 14) to U Bulovka."
