What to expect on the tour?
Brewhouse 1869
From the courtyard of the Pilsner Urquell Brewery, you will take a bus through the brewery complex to the Gambrinus Brewery. There, you will be welcomed by the local brewmaster with a freshly tapped beer. With a chilled glass in hand, you will learn about the history of the brewery and the ingredients essential for brewing our beer.
Modern Brewhouse
You will then continue to the brewhouse, where Gambrinus beer is brewed. You will learn about the brewing process, what is needed to brew beer, and what determines its original gravity.
Cylindroconical tanks
You will descend into the modern brewery cellars, where you will first explore the preserved space of the historic open fermentation hall. You will then step into the room beneath the cylindroconical tanks, where Gambrinus beer ferments and matures today. The experience is topped off with a tasting of beer drawn directly from one of the tanks.
Beer Tapping Course
You will then return to Brewhouse 1869, where you will be introduced to the basics of the Beer Tapping Course. You will learn what makes properly tapped beer taste great, how to achieve the perfect foam, and what defines different tapping styles. Under the guidance of our brewmaster, you will then try tapping some of our beers yourself. And what you tap, you drink – the tasting is truly generous.
