Friends of Beer Party (Czech: Strana přátel piva, abbreviated SPP) was a political party in the Czech Republic. Originally intended as a humorous commentary on the large number of new political parties, the party decided to run in the elections after receiving public attention. The party reached its peak in 1992 when it received 1.3%, but still failed to reach the threshold.[1] In 1997 party cooperated with the Free Democrats – Liberal National Social Party (SD–LSNS). The party merged with the Czech Social Democratic Party (ČSSD) in 1998, and former members of the party created a Friends of Beer Club within ČSSD. The SPP now continues its activities as the Friends of Beer Association.[2][3]
