Pilsner Urquell: The Original Beer Experience
Meeting point
Enter through the main entrance of Pilsner Urquell Experience
Description
Did you know that Czechs pour their favourite Pilsner Urquell beer in three different styles? They are called Hladinka, Šnyt and Mlíko, and even though they are made of exactly the same beer, they taste completely different. The secret is in the foam!
Embark on a 60-minute journey and change the way you see beer - forever. During the exclusive Tapster Academy, a beer-pouring class held in one of our stunning private bars, our professional tapsters will teach you the secrets of how to pour a perfect beer.
You will understand the importance of ingredients, beer storage, pouring methods, cleanliness, and much more. During the class, you will learn to pour all three Pilsner Urquell pours, but most importantly, you will be able to distinguish a great beer from a bad one and recognize the most common mistakes when it comes to beer pouring.
At the end of the Tapster Academy, you will receive a certificate of completion, and also a nicely packed Pilsner Urquell bottle with your name! :)

Such a great experience
This was a great experience. We had Louie, who was fantastic, as our guide. He was funny, made everyone feel welcome and part of a great experience!
We were never without a drink through out our experience and would definitely recommend it! The experience was made even better by Louie and we all came out having spent the hour laughing, learning and sampling the beer!
Operator response
Thank you so much for your fantastic 5-star review! 🍺 We’re thrilled to hear that Louie made your visit so memorable with his humour, enthusiasm and warm hospitality. We’re delighted you enjoyed discovering the history of Pilsner Urquell, learning about the brewing tradition and sampling our world-famous Czech beer. We’ll be sure to share your kind words with Louie! Thank you for recommending The Pilsner Experience, and we look forward to welcoming you back to Prague for another unforgettable experience! Hopefully you enjoyed Pilsner Experience Festival!

A Prague must-do.
I initially booked in for just the Tapster Academy, but later went back and did the tour too.
The Tapster Academy was brilliant. Toby was our teacher and he really knew about everything that goes into a perfect Pilsner Urquell, even showing us how the taps work and telling us how to spot a badly poured beer. The best part? Every beer you pour, whether outlets correctly or not, you can still drink.
The tour was also very good, with another beer tasting included. The exhibit is more of an experience than a museum, taking you through every process involved in making Pilsner Urquell.
Strangely, Pilsner Urquell is such a low ABV that even after all the beer I practically felt sober.
If you like beer, this is the place to be in Prague.
Operator response
Thank you for your amazing review! We’re delighted that you enjoyed both the Tapster Academy and The Original Tour. We’ll be happy to share your kind words with Toby! We’re also glad you enjoyed discovering the different ways of pouring and serving Pilsner Urquell.

Fine if you a Really Extreme Beer Lover
The Original Tour was cheesy but fun and lighthearted. If you really like beer and want something interactive, the Original Tour is worth the money. Additionally, we did the Tapster Academy which is only worth the expensive price if A) you are really really into beer and can/want to drink 4-5 of the same type of beer in an hour or B) with a large group. We were the only 2 people in it which felt awkward and although we like beer, to us this additional experience was not worth us spending $140 USD in total.
Operator response
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback — we really appreciate it. Hopefully you like engraved mugs with your name after the Beer Sommelier dinner and the personalised bottle and certificate after the Tapster Academy. These are exactly the kinds of details we hope make the experience memorable, and it’s great to know our visitors value them.
