The place to go for craft beers in Amsterdam! Steve, his staff and Nala were amazing hosts for a stop on our honeymoon, and we were blown away by the quality and variety of beers. Would highly recommend to any beer enthusiast!
Best tasting Trappist beer I've ever had, in a quaint little bespoke pub, run by a lovely couple for 20 years. Lovely place, even the car is friendly!
Old fashioned and authentic bar. They offer many local beers and snacks. Great atmosphere!
Really welcoming, nice talks and service. Pretty happy of having this great moment with my Friends there!
The beer selection here is very much at the high end, but they also offer quality €3 pils and house blonde. The service is extremely friendly and patient. Adelina was very kind to us while we were indecisive. Nala is a friendly cat who made us feel immediately at home. We ordered beers that I don't believe we could get anywhere else in Amsterdam, and everything was delightful. The snacks are typical bar fare but really hit the spot when drinking 9-11.5% beers. I will definitely be back.
