Postřižinské is a brand of beer produced by the brewery in Nymburk in the Czech Republic.
Nymburk Brewery, founded in 1895, is with its annual production about 200 000 hectoliters among the medium-sized breweries.[1] The name Postřižinské comes from Bohumil Hrabal's book Postřižiny (English as Cutting It Short), later made into a well-known film Cutting It Short (1980) by Jiří Menzel.[2] Bohumil Hrabal spent his childhood in Nymburk as a stepson of the brewery's manager.
