Why we say this
Insider secrets & local vibes
It is a genuine independent craft brewery (founded 1985) in a converted bath-house at the foot of the De Gooyer windmill, with none of the branded-attraction gloss of Heineken.
Not independently verified — estimated
It sits out on the Funenkade in Oost, a tram ride from the centre, and the tap room is small with limited seating that overflows onto the pavement.
