This is such a great place. Not only one of the first micro's in Holland but also one of the best. Great beers, great location, great people. You should visit it in summer when people are sitting all around the place. Even on the floor next to the building. Love it!

Very cool place as this brewery is set in a windmill. The walls are lined with old beer bottles making it very cozy. Lots of smoke so its sort of hard to stay a long time if you are not a smoker. Be sure to get there early as it fills quickly.

Fantastic place with fantastic beer. Great atmosphere. Who needs other beers when IJ-beers are all around? Great people there...and a LOT of people there, I try to get there as early as possible, because it’s completely filled with people towards the evening.

Check the opening times before you go as it is a long way from the centre and you wouldn't want to get thyere and find it empty. Don't want to contradict Oakes but its not strictly in a Windmill, its an old bath house where the locals used to go for their weekly bath. The soapholders are still visible in the walls. Its a realy scruffy building inside, little has been done in the way of decorating, save for hundreds of bottles around the walls, but on a Friday afternoon, when they do tours for anyone who cares to join the place fills up and becomes truly amazing. Not to be missed.

Every time Pivo and I have been to Amsterdam we were there. I love this place so much. The atmosphere is great, also the beer and it is a fun place with great stuff.

What a great place to drink beer! In a windmill, with all the beautiful 't IJ beers available. OK, variety is a little soft, and the hours are scarce to say the least, but what a great place to drink beer!
