39 Chevening Road now has about 100 more Dutch beers in stock, most of which will be new to you lot (except Ken possibly). Guess I might need a hand in getting through them all!


I’ll help you go Dutch Chris.

When Dutch footballers win a cap - do you think they get the irony ?

Talking Double Dutch.

You are correct. It is my house and it’s in NW6.

Yeah, there’s a shitload of new breweries. I reckon I could have picked up at least 250 winners at Burg Bieren alone. And that was without looking at their De Molens & Emelisse as I couldn’t remember which I’d already picked up. And on top of the 100 or so new Dutch beers tried elsewhere over the weekend.

Doh! Dumbass here thought there was an exciting new outlet near where he stays whilst in London.

Burg Bieren is a great place isn’t it. We went there last year en route from Arnhem to Landsmeer, Amsterdam.

Absolutely. Reminded me a bit of a Dutch Dranken Geers. Parking outside made it an ideal place for loading up as we had the car. But, as usual, not taking credit cards makes things tricky. We had about 200 euro to spare and had to try and keep a rough mental tally of spending as we went along. Ended up with about 20 euro underspend. Anyway, I guess enough of the Netherlands in a London thread.
