The 23 Best Restaurants in Amsterdam, the Netherlands | Eater

"Despite the ubiquity of Heineken and affiliated products, the Netherlands does produce craft beer. Brouwerij ‘t IJ’s scenic brewery and taproom, located in a bathhouse next to a mill, is an idyllic place to try some for yourself. The place has something for everyone, including a Belgian-style Zatte Tripel, an IPA, and a wheat beer, Ijwit. The taproom also offers seasonal specials, a couple non-alcoholic beers, and an array of toasties, sausages, and fried things to snack on. During the weekend, you can tour the brewery, and the rest of the time, you can escape the stag parties and general madness that sometimes engulf the city center. Best for: Finding a table big enough for a large group." - Katharine Khamhaengwong
