Prague Brewery Tour

Prague is home to historic pubs that brew beer onsite. These microbreweries produce a range of freshly crafted beers, from light pilsners to dark, spicy ales.

The tour begins in the Old Town, where we meet our guide, the ‘Beer Master’, before taking a short tram ride to the first brewery.

Here, we view the large brewing facilities while the guide explains the brewing process. We then take a seat to sample seven of their beers, including light and dark unpasteurised lagers, a wheat beer, and several speciality brews.

When tasting beer, Czech people often order traditional pub snacks such as cheese and sausage to accompany the drinks. We follow this custom, and it is included in the price.

Afterwards, we take a 10‑minute stroll to the next stop, a grand historic pub and brewery, where we sample a heady 13% dark lager brewed in house from water, hops, yeast, and four kinds of malted barley.

Our final stop is a large traditional Old Town brewery, the most typical ‘locals’ tavern on the tour. The air is filled with the hum of Prague people enjoying a beer (or two!) after work.

After a tour of the brewing facilities, we sample a semi‑dark amber brew. This is a yeast beer, a rare subspecies of Czech Pilsner with fresh yeast added after fermentation. The extra yeast gives the beer a crisp, vibrant character. Unpasteurised beers do not stay fresh for long, so drink up!

The Prague Brewery Tour is not a beer‑drinking competition. There is plenty to sample, but the focus is on quality, not quantity—on taste and discovery. At each pub the Beer Master explains the brewing process, outlining the steps involved and the ingredients employed. Participants will gain an appreciation of the varying complexities of taste and finish in each of the beers we drink.

The Beer Master will also explain the history and traditions of beer brewing in Czechia, a country that has had a significant impact on beer brewing throughout the world.

Apps and guidebooks are no substitute for a real guide. We will have plenty of fun, and by the end of the tour you will hopefully appreciate why Czechs consider themselves the premier beer‑brewing nation on the planet.

Prague Experience walking tours are led by licensed tourist guides.

The tour is in English. It can be arranged in other languages for groups (10+ people).

The tour is suitable for adults of all ages and is paced according to the participants.
