My stop at Strahov Monastery Brewery in Prague, Czech Republic comes at the end of a nearly three week trip to Europe including a two week Danube River cruise aboard the #AmaVerde of the Amawaterways fleet where we visited nine countries very efficiently. I couldn’t say enough wonderful things about AmaWaterways but this is a beer and brewery blog so I’m gonna stay focused (but feel free to ask me about amazing AmaWaterways). Also, we didn’t leave a lot of time for the trip to Strahov, so essentially we Ubered there and split an appetizer while I tasted two beers. Amber Lager and Dark Lager.

Both beers were delightful. Malty, the dark beer also caramelly and chocolatey. Drinking them brings me back 40 years to when I visited Germany on an exchange program and was able to enjoy beer at monasteries we visited even though I was under 18. I must confess that in some cases I took the beer mug home with me. In an effort to redeem myself I was looking for a Strahov Monastery Brewery mug to purchase and bring home but in our haste to move on I didn’t see one.

I hope this European brewery visit doesn’t have a 40 year span til I’m able to visit Europe again. At that rate I won’t make a return visit. We loved the food at the brewery and the beer certainly complemented it. Until next time, Cheers!
