You’ll slip into a private beer bath in Prague, pour yourself as much Bernard beer as you like straight from the tap, and unwind on a heated bed after your soak. If you’re feeling extra indulgent, there’s even an optional massage. It’s equal parts quirky and soothing — something you’ll remember every time you catch that malty scent again.
The first thing I noticed was the smell — warm, yeasty, kind of like fresh bread but with that malty edge. The woman at the desk grinned when she saw my hesitation and just said, “Don’t worry, you’ll love it.” She handed me a mug (proper glass, not plastic) and pointed to the Bernard tap. Unlimited beer really means unlimited here, apparently. I poured clumsily and almost spilled some on my shoe. She laughed and said most people do that their first time.
We got led into our private room — wood everywhere, dim light, it felt more like someone’s cozy cellar than a spa. The tub was already filled with this golden-brown liquid that looked nothing like any bath I’ve had before. Slipping in was strange at first — the water’s thicker than normal, sort of soft on your skin? There’s dried hops floating around too. My partner tried to pronounce “pivní lázeň” (beer bath) to our attendant; he nodded politely but I’m pretty sure we butchered it. The whole thing was oddly relaxing though — sipping cold Bernard while soaking in warm beer is one of those things you don’t expect to work but it just… does.
After half an hour we moved over to these heated beds wrapped in crisp sheets. You can hear muffled voices from somewhere else in the building, but otherwise it’s quiet except for the hum of pipes and the occasional clink of someone refilling their glass outside. If you want, there’s an option for a massage too (we skipped it because honestly we were already so relaxed). Walking out after an hour felt like waking up from a nap you didn’t know you needed. My skin smelled faintly sweet for hours afterward — not unpleasant at all.
