OT: Another Prague request...

I don't see a point in looking for a tank PU unless you just want to enjoy the view on the tanks. 
In my view best PU in Prague is at U Jelínků (
https://goo.gl/20kqVD) where they have it from KEG. Hovewer it is a not a restaurant, it is just a tiny Ausschank where could 10-15 people stand (usually all of them are locals, but sometimes also tourists come) and there is also about 3 or 4 tables in the back side (where I haven't been anytime). While the front standing section, I visit nearly every week for a Seidla at hot days... Also well known pub "U Zlateho tygra" has great PU, also from KEGs. However it is usually too crowdy there and smoking is allowed. Tanks are only good for staff as they don't have to change KEGs often, and for pub owners, as it is a big cheaper for them.

What else to say... Dno Pytle you have mentioend (in last couple of months, they have Franken beers very rare, but sometimes you could get another german beers - e.g. Zoigls and these days they have Dampfbrauereie Zwiesel). Don't forget that they have moved to Vinohradska street some time ago. They have up-to-date beerlist on the web. 
Close to Dno Pytle (5 mins walking) is Beergeek bar (beergeek.cz), modern-style pub with 30 taps. However many of them are US & UK etc. beers. Of course they have also CZ beers. Prices are a bit higher. 

Zly Casy (zlycasy.eu) is three-floor pub (also with some food) that has about 24 taps. In the lowest floor, Mondays and sometimes Tuesdays there are franconian beers from gravity (this week Griess, Hummel, Wagner, ...), but this is probably not what you are looking for in Prague :) So just for others. 

From breweries I could definitively recommend Strahovsky klasterni pivovar (http://www.klasterni-pivovar.cz/), which is my #1 in Prague and also in top5 in CZ. Reasonable prices, great beer, excellent service both for locas and tourists. Also I like brewery Hostivar (http://www.pivovar-hostivar.cz/) however that's a bit of travelling from the center. 

There is already nearly 30 breweries just inside the Prague, but to be honest, most of them doesn't worth a visit unless you stay somewhere close.
