Speculation is growing that the second largest brewery in the Czech Republic is up for sale.

Anheuser-Busch In Bev is reportedly in discussions with Dutch brewer Heineken to offload Pivovary Staropramen.

The brewery has been valued at between $255 million (£174 million) and $306 million (£209 million).

So far the companies have declined to comment on the speculation.

Are French wines ready to make a resurgence?
