Excursão e degustação de cerveja em micro cervejaria em Praga

Thoroughly enjoyed our time on the tour with our guide Steve. We were lucky enough to be the only people on the tour and Steve was very entertaining and informative both about the beers, and Prague in general. There was some walking, but not too much and just about the right amount of beer. Some food was included as well, which we were not expecting. We visited places we would not have found on our own so were very pleased with the tour.

There are two things that make this tour, the beer is fantastic and the tour guide is awesome. Paul was super knowledgeable, not only beer but about Prague as a whole. Any questions the group had he answered honestly and gave great advice regarding other key things to do while in town. The tour starts off with a tasting or 7 beers at one brewery, moves on to the oldest brewery in Prague for a pint of the only beer they make my favorite and finishes off with one last pint at a small spot serving a nice old style Czech lager. The history of beer that came with the drinking made the experience that much more interesting and enjoyable. Would recommend this tour to any beer drinkers coming to Prague with a couple of hours to spare outside the normal tourist areas.

It's possible our guide, Tomas, has the best job I've ever heard of : He is very knowledgeable about the local history and the breweries we toured, and showed a genuine interest in our preferences and respective countries our tour included people from Sweden, UK, and USA. Our tour included three stops, the first of which, Pivovarsky Dum, was the newest about twenty years old. The name translates roughly to 'brewer's guild' and we were offered a sample wheel of eight different types of beer. There were the usual suspects light, dark, wheat and some unusual offerings which were quite good nettle was my personal favorite, but I may have been alone on that, and a couple which were interesting to have experienced but not something I'd seek out in the future I'm looking at you, banana. Next, we went to U Fleku, which was established at that location in 1499, and has used the same building since the 17th century. We enjoyed their signature beverage, a dark beer which was lovely and the atmosphere was jovial. Our final stop was U Medvidku, which opened in 1466. The building was originally quite small, and a larger commercial space built up around it over the years. It is unlikely we would have found this gem on our own. This tour is an excellent introduction to the history of beer in Prague. I must do for brewers or beer aficionados!
