 Heineken by codrutz
One of the must see place for all you malt lovers out there :) The original Heineken brewery in Amsterdam, dating from 1930. Between 1930-1988 this famous (and very good indeed) beer was made right on this spot. Now on the building is the Heineken Experience beer museum.
Inside, for an admission price of 10 EUR you can discover the secret of making one of the best beers in the world. From the big malt silos to the steering wagons, and of course to the bar where you'll be given a Heineken beer to "taste", the experience is not so extraordinary, but surely a pleasant journey into the "beer world".

 Just a big brown building by Mariajoy
I do know that tours are Mon-Fri 9.30am-11.00am and in Jun-Sept they are also on at 1pm-2.30pm AND if that isn't enough, in Jul-Aug they are held on Sat 12 non-2pm. Apparently tours are really popular so get your tickets in advance. Leave a Comment Directions: Northern edge of the De Pijp district.

 Heineken Brewery by H-TownJourneyman
-A self guided tour through the Heineken brewery, seeing all you would ever wish to see about the history of the beer
-3 free beers handed out at the two bar "rest areas" of the tour
-A free Heineken beer glass
A nice little tour, the beer alone makes it a good investment!

For you, it will be no surprise since you know your lager that Amsterdam is the home of Heineken lager.
Beer friends, attention!
Entering the museum you get four different coloured tokens, each for an Amsterdam sized beer at the pubs. One at halfway, near the copper cauldrons, and the See You Again Bar at the exit.
These are probably the cheapest beer you will find in Amsterdam! For non-beer drinkers there are Coke, Orange or mineral water.
The self guided tour takes you through the history of brewing beer and the past of Heineken, also an interesting selection of old photos. Its a little more than just a "beer tour" through the rooms of the old factory.
There is an amusing moving experience half way in a small room with a screen, where you are put into the role of a Heineken bottle on the conveyor belt, in order to feel what it is like being a bottle. You start the ride as an empty bottle with thousands of other bottles, following the different processes until you emerge as a filled bottle.
You can email your photo to friends from the brewery, to share the Heineken Experience with them.
It is recommended to those who love beer and want to see how one of the best beers in the world has been made. The only problem is that the only beer available is the lager, even though Heineken brews more than 120 beers.
Open: During summer time, daily 11.00am - 7.00pm. last entry 5.45pm.
From September until May, daily except Monday 10.00am - 6.00pm. last entry 5.00pm.

during the summer most of the attractions are open until late - got to the heinekken museum at 6pm and still lots of time to take my time through the place, tho other things to see also on my itinerary - but for 10 euro the ticket shows itself itself to be pretty good value!
3 tokens are given so that at various points through the self-tour you get to trial Heinekkens beer - not that they need our opinions, they have done hugely successfully since its origins - but its an interesting tour and i did enjoy my beer!
the first beer stop you get to use on of your tokens for a pint. the bar at the end of the self tour you get to use your last two tokens for any two drinks - i was hoping for a shandy!! but no true lemonade but a lemon flavoured fanta type drink was also recommended by the bar tender as a good potential addition to dilute my beer (too many more museums and walking to fit in to have to swagger!!) , so any non alcoholic is allowed for your tokens.
then a free gift is also included - so for the budget conscious heres your chance for a free and rather handy souvenir - a Heinekken bottle opener inside a bottle- to add to your tulip and cheese souvenirs!?

Big museum dedicated to Heineken. You get 3 beers and a glass for your visit. While no beer is actually brewed there it was a very interesting exploring the evolution of the company. Includes a multi-media look at their ads over the years and a virutal ride on a a horse pulled carriage. Leave a Comment

Take a tour of the Heineken museum, takes you through its origins and gradual progression to become a major international leader in the beer market.
For only 10 euro you get a self guided tour, a free gift! (which was a rather handy heineken bottle opener inside a heineken beer shaped can) plus 3 drinks - a heineken beer of course in the Heineken bar and then near the end two drinks of your choice.
Plus Theres a Heineken souvenir shop so you can spend a bit more for all those momentos you want to take home and display around the house or give as gifts in remembrance of your tour. cheaper items such as the Heineken beer counter towel makes a handy souvenir hand towel i thought. Leave a Comment
