The Brouwerij t'IJ allows you to combine great beer and a bit of Dutch scenery. Europeans, especially the Dutch, Germans and Belgians, are known for great tasting beer. Explore an Amsterdam local favorite, the Brouwerij t'IJ. This place is especially significant in that it situated at the base of De Gooyer windmill, one of the few windmills left in the city. So if you can't get out of the city long enough to see the Dutch countryside, make your way to the east side of Amsterdam to visit the Brouwerij t'IJ. The tasting room is open from 14:00 to 20:00, and tours are available weekend days at 15:30 and 16:00. (+31 20 320 1786)
