The rise of the brewery is recorded inside the superb Brewery Museum, complete with interactive displays in English and housed inside an old red brick Protestant, neo-Gothic church built in 1902. Tours must be booked in advance, and yes, there’s a tasting session at the end. The tours are conducted in Polish, English, German, Spanish (unavailable in July & August), French, Italian, Czech, Russian and in the Silesian dialect (if you ever wanted to hear what that might sound like). The museum building also houses the local City Museum, which is also well worth having a look inside if you’ve got the time, while the town of Tyskie itself is worth a bit of exploration to round off the trip.

To get there from Katowice, take a train to Tychy; the brewery is a short walk southeast from the train station.

Admission 12/6 zl.
