The restored monastic brewery beside the famous Cistercian abbey brews Vorkloster beers with a one-of-a-kind genius loci. Rarely does something as worldly as a beer hall feel this refined—inside and out. Try the monastery ruby or amber lager, or the zwickl. There’s also a lovely, cosy beer garden.
Klášterní pivovar Porta Coeli
Winner
2022 
All the beers were excellent, including the non-alcoholic one. The interior is perfect, and the monastery setting adds to the charm. A place where I’d happily bring my family for lunch—or invite friends to celebrate anything.

Tips for nearby activities
Guided tours are available hourly through the Gothic core of the monastery of Porta Coeli (for groups of at least 3 persons): through a church, a chapter hall, and a beautiful cloister which will put even unbelievers in a state of contemplation. Try the nature trails and bike paths in the area, the local forests are good for your soul. And climb the Klucanina lookout tower!
The Tišnov region is a beer Eden. You can take the Tišnov Beer Trail here. Taste beers, for example, at the Genius Noci brewery, Květnice brewery, enjoy rye lager from the Doubravník brewery, or try the Kvasar from Sentice, which is famous for its strong honey beer.
