Steve LucasApril 3, 2015This place is a craft beer Mecca! Completely underrated by social media. Amazing diversity of rare beers from USA and Europe. Bottle range unrivalled in Amsterdam.
I love this place. The service is great and they always have good craft beer on draught. Also a lot of bottles and cans too. A must visit for craft beet lovers!
Chris VodolaAugust 30, 2018Super legit craft beer bar featuring mostly US micros on tap with a wide can and bottle selection. Ask about their sister bars around Amsterdam — a trip to all 4 earns you a free t-shirt.
- Top grade craft beer place specializing in American beers. 30 taps out of which about 20 are American and 10 local brands (mostly MoreBeer and Uiltje). Expert staff, light bar snack food also.
Ryan TauerJune 7, 2017Love this place. Mostly focused on American beer but has selections from around Europe as well. Great neighborhood- check out bierkoning around the corner to take some beers home
Love this place. Nice haven from the overpriced, touristy places of Dam Square. Great range of American and European craft beers. Get the Bald Eagle DIPA.
Robin BertelsJuly 18, 2018Some of the best rotating taps you’ll find in Amsterdam. Close to Dam square, right in the city center.
American Centric CraftBeer spot. Best in Amsterdam. 50 Taps plus many bottles/cans. Awesome/Knowledgeable crew. Must-go after strolling Amsterdam and have a cold pint.- Muffin ManJune 3, 2019WHY THERE: craft beer. STUFF: nice. STAFF: smooth. LOCATION: mainstream (relatively convenient). PRICES: high (relatively reasonable)
There are 25 American Craft Beers on tap here, usually of over seven different breweries. Try at least three different breweries in a visit!
Plenty of different beers from tap and also on bottle. I always find something new on the tap board when I visit the place. Seats are limited, cosy place.

American craft, guest NL taps, and more. Highest recommendation for craft beer geeks
Olimpiu HuleaFebruary 1, 2015Once a week you can meet some expats exercising their dutch skills. You will find some friendly and very helpfull dutch guys when it comes to practice nederlandse taal.
The bartenders are brilliant. Just tell them what kind of beer you like, and they'll advise you about what nice beers they have on tap and everything.
Alyssa NeyJanuary 25, 2014This place has an incredible selection of beers on tap and in bottles. Have all 3 westvleterens on the list and some crazy 99 euro dark lord.

deestivJanuary 30, 2014Incredible selection of beers, both bottles and on tap. And try the beer brownie - it's fantastic!
