Prague: Guided Tour of 3 Breweries with Beer Tastings

Additional Information & Description

Prague’s brewing culture comes into focus over 11 varieties of Czech beer, with a beer master guiding the tasting. This three-hour tour takes you beyond a single bar and into working microbreweries, where the beer you sample is brewed on the spot. The emphasis is on tasting alongside learning: a local guide connects what is in your glass with the city’s brewing traditions and processes.

Three breweries, distinct approaches

The guided tour visits Pivovarsky Dum, U Fleku and U Medvidku, three of Prague’s most famous microbreweries. Together, the stops introduce traditional and modern brewing techniques rather than presenting Czech beer as a single style. Visiting the places where production happens gives the tasting a concrete setting, with each brewery contributing its own part to the exploration of Prague’s local brewing scene.

From light and dark beers to seasonal brews

The tasting spans traditional light and dark beers as well as seasonal brews. That range gives you more to explore than one familiar type of Czech beer, with successive samples introducing different expressions of the brewing tradition. Your guide explains the brewing process along the way, so the drinks form part of an informed tasting rather than simply a sequence of brewery stops.

A brewing story stretching back centuries

Czech beer has a long history behind it. Evidence places hop growing in the Czech lands as early as 850 A.D., while the first recorded brewing is attributed to Bohemian monks at Břevnov Monastery, near Prague Castle, in 990 A.D. Beer remains deeply embedded in the country’s culture: the Czech Republic has the world’s highest beer consumption per capita. These historical roots give context to the traditions explored during the tour.
