That lineup is pretty crazy

Yeah, their line-ups are pretty great always. But with Emperor and MH, it really takes the cake this year. Hopefully I'll be there again.

I want to measure how awesome these festivals are. Do they sell draft pilsner Urquell in there?

Yes, in general we do not drink from bottle that much in Czech Republic, i mean whenever there is a possibility to have draft beer (as we say "točené pivo") we would take that one :-), To be honest I can't imagine festival in Czech Republic where they would server beer from bottle :-D... at Brutal there is a bar where they give you beer into a glass instead of plastic cup and also there are many local pubs where you can taste truly good Czech beer (much better then the one at the venue). I am sure you may even find shops around especially in Hradec Kralove where you can buy whole keg :-D

That sounds really good. Next year I want to use my vacation to go to one of these big European metal festival and I'm choosing which one. It has to happen during August so I think Brutal Assault might be a good choice.

Only been to BA once but it's definitely the best big metal festival I've ever been to and one of the finest festival experiences I've had in general. Not to mention it's very affordable.

I would love to go again but circumstances in life haven't permitted me yet.
