Comments
[edit]I made some minor edits to fix a few grammatical problems and also for clarity of the contents. I also added a few historical bits, such as that the Holy Roman Empire ceased to exist by 1896 and that Budvar was at that time part of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. I removed a few items that were not relevant, such as the renaming of the city Pilsen, as the article does not mention anything about Pilsen or so-called "Pilsener beer," and also the expelling of the German population in 1945 (also true, but not relevant to the discussion about the beer).
The article is a little unclear about the existence of two breweries both using the same name, when they were founded and if both are still in existence and what brands they produce - if anyone has information about these breweries please update the posting! —Preceding unsigned comment added by Nealmcgrath (talk • contribs) 14:08, 10 June 2009 (UTC)
- Something about "The Beer of Kings" vs. "The King of Beers" might be useful in the article. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.179.59.23 (talk) 21:41, 27 January 2010 (UTC)

Products "Beers and lagers"
[edit]The info box says the company's products are "beers and lagers". This is tautologous: lager IS beer. It should just say "beers". Unfortunately the page appears to be locked, or I would correct this - can someone with the correct level of authority sort this out? Thanks Zythophile (talk) 10:14, 12 April 2013 (UTC)

"to improve quality"?
[edit]How does forbidding nearby towns from brewing their own beer "improve the quality" of the beer producing town? That doesn't even make sense. If it's because it gives them a choice of the best ingredients within easy transport range it should say so. The usual reason for this is because the granting was made as a reward by the monarch, and unless the town has at least a local monopoly, the reward won't be so profitable for them. By forbidding nearby towns from brewing he forces them all too buy their products from the town granted the right. There are a number of royally-granted artificial monopolies like this.
