Discover Brouwerij 't IJ, a brewery set beside a windmill in Amsterdam. Work through a flight of organic beers with a plate of bitterballen, and consider joining a guided tour.
Full description
Brouwerij 't IJ occupies a former bathhouse next to a windmill and brews organic beers that have made it one of the city's best-known drinking addresses. Visitors typically order at the bar and try a tasting flight, often cited as an easy way to sample the range, with Triple and IJwit singled out as favourites.
Bitterballen and burgers are on offer alongside the beer, and guided tours are available. It sits slightly outside the central core but is simple to reach by tram, for example from Albert Cuyp Market.
Reviewers describe a lively, sociable setting.

Good beer spot! Triple and Ijwit are a must-try. Loved the vibe!! Did the beer tasting - great way to try a bunch. Also had great food. Angus beef burger and fried chicken were delicious. 10/10 would come again!
