The brewery Na Rychte is a restaurant brewery with production capacity 1 000 hectolitres per year, which is solely intended for own use of the restaurant. Brewing houses are inside the restaurant, other technology is completely located in the basement of the building. The whole brewery is lead by a very experienced brewer, Jaroslav Rottenborn. He is a man of almost fifty years experience with brewing beers Zlatopramen and Breznak. The beer is brewed by 2-mash way traditional technology, so-called decoction ( cooking mash ), when one batch takes 12 hours. Primary fermentation takes place in the brewery cellar, in two closed fermentation tanks for a period of 6-9 days. During the primary fermentation the alcohol in beer is created and carbon dioxide is released. After the primary fermentation the brewer's yeast fall to the bottom and the beer is pumped into 6 lager tanks, where it matures for one month ( some special and stronger beers even longer ) and then it is transferred into the pressure tanks from which it is directly served to drink. For brewing we use two or three kinds of Czech hops from Zatec and Ustek, from which the most important is the export semi-rareripe reddish hops from Zatec, a strain more than 500 years old. Malt is added and mixed in specially balanced proportions, so as to achieve an optimal balance of colour and flavour for different kinds of beer. We use moderatly hard water from Usti nad Labem that is free of any impurities and more than twenty years it is used for brewing of well-known beer Zlatopramen. Our beers are served unfiltered and unpasteurized to preserve all the original nutrients in them. At first sight the beer looks a bit turbid and less clear than filtered beer, but thanks to that it contains only natural ingredients ( high content of B vitamins, carbohydrates, brewer's yeast...), it is denser and has a very beneficial effect on human body.
