Opis točke
»Prva tovrstna turistična atrakcija na svetu, postavljena v središče Žalca kot poklon hmeljarstvu in pivovarstvu v Spodnji Savinjski dolini.
V mestnem parku poleg Tržnice Zeleno zlato v Žalcu se bohoti fontana piv, imenovana Fontana Zeleno zlato, ki bogati turistično ponudbo Žalca in osvešča o kulturi pitja piva.
Fontano sestavljata vodni in pivski del, iz katerega se ob prisotnosti pooblaščene osebe z avtorizacijsko kartico iz zemlje dvignejo točilni sistemi, ki gostu natočijo želeno pivo.
Na fontani so na pokušini le piva, ki vsebujejo slovenski hmelj, oziroma hmelj iz Spodnje Savinjske doline. Pika na i pa je pitje iz posebnega pivskega vrčka, ki ga je oblikoval svetovno priznani oblikovalec Oskar Kogoj, izdelali pa so ga v Steklarni Hrastnik 1860. Vrček odnese obiskovalec domov za spomin.
Vrček lahko kupite v TIC-u Žalec, Trgovinici Zeleno zlato na žalski tržnici, v Ekomuzeju hmeljarstva in pivovarstva Slovenije in v nekaterih gostinskih lokalih v Žalcu.

ENGLISH
The first tourist attraction of its kind, located in the centre of Žalec, dedicated to hop growing and brewing industry in the Lower Savinja Valley.
In the town park next to the country market in Žalec there is a beer fountain, called the Green Gold Fountain, the purpose of which is to enrich the tourist offer of Žalec and informing the public on the culture of drinking beer.
The fountain is composed of two parts – the water and the beer part. The beer part requires an authorised person with an authorisation card in order to lift the beer system from the ground and pour the desired beer.
The fountain contains only beers that contain Slovene hops, more specifically hops from the Lower Savinja Valley. The experience is topped off by drinking from a special beer mug, designed by the world-renowned designer Oskar Kogoj. “
