Jakub Ondříšek feels like experimenting. The owner and head bartender of lauded Prague cocktail bars Parlour and Back Doors is talking to me about the Beton, a Czech cocktail that traditionally combines tonic water, ice, a slice of lemon and Becherovka, a digestif made with the supposedly curative thermal spring waters from the northern Bohemian spa town of Karlovy Vary and a secret recipe of herbs that tastes like the essence of a coniferous forest.

LucaliOwner and Carroll-Gardens local Mark Iacono makes the pies here himself from behind an open-plan kitchen: think thin, crispy crust, with a simple sweet homemade tomato base, melting mozzarella and dash of fresh basil leaves. Expect a wait (there's a perpetual queue) but when you've finally got a coveted spot, sit back, chat to your neighbours over candlelit tables, and pretend you've been invited into someone's home.

In the 15th century, Papal armies looking to put out a religious reform movement that had lit up Central Europe marched into Bohemia, the western half of today's Czech Republic. Two centuries later, the Austrians, also under the guise of religion, subdued the region. In 1968, a quarter of a million Warsaw Pact Troops — from Russia, Poland, Bulgaria, Hungary, and East Germany — rolled into Prague to dampen the socialist reform movement known as the Prague Spring.

Thanks to a landscape unusually well-suited to growing hops, the Czech Republic has been home to a potent brewing tradition for more than a millennium. Monks were the country’s brewing pioneers; later, in 1118, the first commercial brewery opened in the Central Bohemian region of Cerhenice. Today, according to the Czech Beer Alliance, the nation is crammed with more breweries per capita any other country, from gargantuan factories like Pilsner Urquell to small-batch outfits.

I sipped my way through Prague recently, talking to some of the city's best bartenders about the only Czech cocktail, the beton: https://t.co/wmmrI6qymu

I hate clickbait power rankings in sports--and yet I bite!--even more so when the @SFGiants begin the season 5-1 and are listed by Dodgers meat rider @Alden_Gonzalez and others @espn at #12, below a team that is 0-7 and just above team that is 2-4. Good job, guys!

I loved this piece by @skurutz on the not-so-sunny career options Gen Xers are facing these days, particularly in media and various writing professions, https://t.co/aVsKWOCYF9
