    It's own of very few non-commercial beers going (in that it's government-owned).

    Ok, I'm going to pedant right back at you. It is still a commercial beer because it is sold for profit :P

    But, destined for state coffers, those are non-profit profits.

    It is the state engaging in commerce, hence commercial beer.

    Cool, didn't know that :)

    Wikipedia says in April 2007 it was to be privatised though. - http://www.dw-world.de/dw/article/0,2144,2606482,00.html


    Are there any other govt. owned beers that are as nice and popular as Budvar ? (Budvar's popular by now right ? :confused:)

    Still is. I don't think they can find a buyer, though.

    Hofbräu and Weihenstephan are both owned by the Bavarian government
