Prgue the Best Beer City in Europe by Evn Ril Let s mke bold clim: Prgue is the best city in Europe for beer lovers. Tht probbly sounds outlndish, t lest t first glnce. Other Europen cpitls certinly might offer greter vriety, with few more kinds of beer vilble. In city like Brussels, you could probbly find 40 different types of beer, including mny rrities tht would be hrd to spot nywhere outside of Belgium. But in Brussels, you cn lso wlk for blocks without finding ny decent beer t ll. In Prgue, on the other hnd, good beer nd often mzingly gret beer is on just bout every corner. Other cities seem to hve greter mounts of pubs or breweries, but there s often ctch. In London, interest in good beer hs cused n explosion in the number of breweries, giving the UK cpitl just over 120 breweries tody. But tht mount is for London s enormous popultion of 8.8 million, mening there is one brewery for every 73,000 inhbitnts. By contrst, Prgue currently hs 42 working breweries nd popultion of just 1.35 million, giving us one brewery per 32,000 people. On per-cpit bsis, if London were to hve s mny breweries nd brewpubs s Prgue, it would need to hve 273 more thn twice s mny s it does tody. (And tht s just for now: nother ten breweries re scheduled to open in Prgue in the next yer or so.) There s lso the question of price. Even in Prgue s most expensive pubs, good beer remins very ffordble, including mny imports, compred to most big cities in Europe. (One brewer from the Netherlnds ws recently surprised to discover tht his crft beers ctully cost less in Prgue thn they do in Amsterdm or Utrecht, even fter ccounting for shipping costs.) And Prgue s excellent public trnsporttion system mens tht beer trvelers cn esy get from one pub, beer grden or microbrewery to the next, mking it possible to crete multi-dy itinerries focusing entirely on trcking down gret les nd lgers. This is huge difference from decde go, when it ws difficult to find mny beers beyond the biggest ntionl brnds in Prgue, nd there ws only smll hndful of brewpubs. Tody Prgue is home to 33 brewpubs, up from 17 in 2014, with more opening every yer. Pubs like Zlý Čsy now offer s mny s 48 tps of lgers nd les from every corner of the Czech Republic, s well s rre beers from trditionl Europen brewing regions like Belgium nd Bvri. (It s no exggertion to sy tht you re more likely to find obscure Bvrin brews in Prgue thn in the Germn cpitl of Berlin, to sy nothing of rre lgers from plces like north Morvi nd the Šumv.) The huge mount of options mens tht you cn try out brnd-new brews like those coming out of ultr-modern Pivovr Hostivr, which strted in 2013, before heding towrds some of the most historic destintions in the beer world: dting from the yer 1499, Prgue s U Fleků is believed to be the oldest continuously functioning brewpub on erth. Nerby, U Medvídků hs been fmous tvern since 1466. In terms of beer nd history, very few plces come even remotely close to the Golden City. So grb this guide nd trm pss. Pln out route to number of beery destintions or just relx in the shde of single beutiful beer grden. Work up thirst or quench one. Wherever you go in Prgue, you cn be sure tht nother gret beer is witing for you just round the corner.
