Overview
The Czech-Moravian Mini-Brewery Association (Českomoravský svaz minipivovarů) is a Czech industry body that brings together small, craft and mini breweries from across the Czech Republic. Its official website, minipivo.cz, serves as a directory and information hub for the country's mini-brewery sector, listing member breweries by region and promoting Czech beer culture. The association's most visible public activity is the Festival minipivovarů na Pražském hradě (Mini-Brewery Festival at Prague Castle), which by the evidence on its website had reached its 13th edition. The festival showcases beers from member mini-breweries to a broad public audience in a high-profile historic setting. Membership spans most Czech regions, including South Bohemian, South Moravian, Karlovy Vary, Hradec Králové, Liberec, Moravian-Silesian and Olomouc breweries. Listed members range from well-known regional names such as Pivovar Kněžínek, Pivovar Mazák, Líšeňský pivovar Brno, Pivovar Pegas and Pivovar Permon Sokolov to smaller family and village breweries. The association also lists service providers and suppliers such as B&B Polygrafie s.r.o., Thermotechnika Bohemia, s.r.o., CHRISTEYNS S.R.O. and Raven trading, s.r.o., indicating a broader support network for the mini-brewery trade. As an association rather than a commercial brewery, its role is representative and promotional: it connects brewers, publishes news and member information, and organizes events that raise the profile of Czech mini-breweries domestically. The organization operates in the Czech language and is focused on the Czech market.
