    This place is unique in the Centre area. It is known for having a wide choice for American beers. The atmosphere has a rustic feel to it similar like a brown café. This place can hold roughly 65 people (Thanks for correcting, Peter!), despite looking quite small inside. I'll definitely come back here often just to try out their canned American beers!

    Very nice place in the center of Amsterdam, a large variety of beers and very friendly staff. I think they let me try at least 4 beers before actually ordering. We had 2 beers per person and paid around 10.

    I love this place they have a great variety on tap and even more in a can. The draft prices are pretty good but they can get up to 14 euros for a can beer depending on where its from I’m guessing. The staff is nice and it’s small and cozy. Definitely will be back.

    Wide range of craft on the tap beers and bar tender is jolly and more than happy to let you try, explore and explain all different beers. Lovely place. Highly recommended for beer lovers and someone looking to spend some good time with friends over there beer 🍻

    Grrrreat selection of craft beers. Almost too much choice :-) (is that possible?!) creative beers, nice snacks, knowledgeable staff. Tried their Trappist cheese today, really lovely and creamy. And every beer I've had so far has been spot on

    Great place to hang out with your collega's after a long day of work; the bartender has a rich knowledge of the products, he knows exactly what fits better for you. I wanted to give 5 stars but at the time to pay and "dividing the bills" was not helpful... All dutch bars are very use to do separate bills, remember "cuentas claras, amistades largas"....

    Great craft beer tap list. So many American beers that I can’t even get in Atlanta. The bartender was nice, atmosphere was fine.

    We tried Dutch Eagle, didn’t like much because of its flavor. Also tried bitterballen which was delicious. Athmosphere and the music is nice. A bit pricey, we wouldn’t revisit.

  • 5/5 Dan Y. 7 months ago on Google • 189 reviews
    Very surprised to see some of the draft beers they had available. Some really good IPA's are being poured here at good prices. The staff is great and will help you decide if you want them to. They've got a nice outside area for enjoying the beer, or plenty of space inside.

    It’s a good place to hang out with friends. They have very good food with their nominal price. My friend will take the food I don’t try. They have a lot of collection of beers atmosphere is very good. Staff is very friendly can definitely it’s very near to central.

    Great craft beer place with quite unique beers! You can even try the beers before you order them. Overall, worth checking it out if you are into craft beer

  • 5/5 Sean L. 1 month ago on Google • 112 reviews New
    Solid craft beer bar in the middle of Amsterdam, I came for the Adroit Theory on tap and cans but tried some great other beers also

  • 5/5 Buğra N. 9 months ago on Google
    50 beers on tap and many more as bottle. Very polite and helpful guys. Best choice in Amsterdam for a beer lover.

  • 4/5 Robert S. 7 months ago on Google
    Nice atmosphere and an amazing selection of beer. Not cheap but I think the prices make sense considering the location and rarity of the beers. Every time I'm there something goes wrong. Either the amount of beer is less than advertised or I get a bigger size of beer than I asked for which they do try to charge me for. When I point it out they made a mistake it gets fixed but it happened on multiple occasions so I'm wondering if it's part of their business model to earn a bit more of people who don't verify their bill.

  • 4/5 Nihad A. 1 year ago on Google
    Huge selection of very good beers from USA. You can drink some beers that you cannot find in any other place in Amsterdam. However, when it is busy some members of staff are very rude. Even in Amsterdam standards. 4 stars because of perfect selection of beers that is offered.

  • 5/5 Tarjei H. 9 months ago on Google
    Excellent craft beer spot. 50 beers on tap, you can get tasters of all. Lots of more beers that can be ordered by can/bottle. Perfect service outside

  • 5/5 Davina K. 10 months ago on Google
    Great selection of craft beers on tap, lovely bar staff too. The bar is very cosy, easy to find and wasn't too busy when we went.

  • 5/5 Mor T. 7 months ago on Google
    Big selection of beers from tap. There are plenty in bottles and cans. The bartender was extremely nice and helpful. I wasn’t sure if I wanted to go for a sour or a stout - he gave me a few tasters to help me choose the right one.

  • 5/5 Denys V. 8 months ago on Google
    Large selection of beers, many good breweries. Prices from 6€ to 9€ for 25dcl. Good place, we'll be back.

  • 5/5 Charriz Dominique B. 7 months ago on Google
    Nice selection of good local and international beers. Plenty of seats!

  • 5/5 Amber E. 1 year ago on Google
    Great selection of local and international beers! Great music, if you’re a Gen x or Gen y millennial you’ll feel very nostalgic for the music.

  • 5/5 Angelica M. 5 months ago on Google
    Great beer selection and it's a verified untapped venue. Definitely recommend it! I'm pretty sure they don't serve food.

  • 5/5 Amrit P. 3 weeks ago on Google • 47 reviews New
    Lot of beer to choose from. Appreciate the guy who had lot of patience and giving me some of what I needed to taste.

  • 5/5 Wael D. 1 year ago on Google
    Speechless... I am so happy to see such a place in Amsterdam where you get to taste Ron's of beers on tap 😋 , they have a huge collection by bottles coming from US and they have their own local IPA. Superb place to be and I am going to make it on my map a must come when I am in Amsterdam 🤩

  • 5/5 Tomasz Z. 2 years ago on Google
    Great service, nice vibe and an impressive offer of beers! If you are into craft beers then this is definitely a must see for you ;) It is quite pricey though

  • 5/5 Michael M. 2 years ago on Google
    Great selection of US but also European beers.

  • 5/5 Sean C. 2 years ago on Google
    Craft beer heaven with 50 beers on taps including local Dutch beers and international beers. Accomoanied with quick and friendly service its a definite place to visit

  • 5/5 fadi i. 2 years ago on Google
    More than 80 different kind of beer and great sit.

  • 5/5 Pierre B. 2 years ago on Google
    Very good beers. They have so many draft beers. It's a bit expensive but worth it.

  • 5/5 Chris B. 2 years ago on Google
    Little gem and clearly the best taproom in A'Dam. Knowledgable folks and super service.

  • 1/5 Ksenia T. 2 years ago on Google
    Great selection of beers, but very rude and unhelpful staff, which totally ruins the joy from beer. I wouldn’t go here again and would prefer some nicer and friendlier place. Here it felt as the staff is doing me favor by serving beer or food and I was looking forward to go away from here. Will remove this place from my map, especially taking into account there are another good beer places around with much better vibe. While I was here,I felt the people working here were absolutely unhappy and unwelcoming. Among other comments, while ordering snacks and beer here, the staff has pointed out couple of times, that they are a beer place and I should concentrate more on ordering beer, rather than snacks. Not just this was inappropriate, but this comment is strange, since there is also a food menu here. If it claimed to be a purely beer place — why to offer food and snacks at all? And if the food is offered, why to discourage people from ordering it? The staff also made rude comments about which food we ordered and it seemed they didn’t want to do serve it all. It looked like they were doing a favor cooking anything. The other thing is I asked to plug in my phone for a minute so I can order an Uber. They told they cannot do it, because they are closing, even though the place was still open for another 30 mins and I have ordered another beer literally a moment ago.

  • 5/5 Diego Z. 1 year ago on Google
    No frills locale for amazing selection of beer. Skews towards American selections but has great local offerings too. The staff was tremendously kind and generous with their time.

  • 5/5 Edward B. 11 months ago on Google
    Great range of some the best and most sought after American craft breweries both on tap and by the bottle or can that rotates regularly and reasonably priced considering it is imported. The staff are very friendly too and will be happy to recommend you a beer too.

  • 5/5 Corvin B. 2 years ago on Google
    An amazing homage to craft beers. Great service and recommendations from the bar staff. Those guys really know their beer. The snack foods are also quite good.

  • 4/5 Jeff K. 1 year ago on Google
    Incredible selection of American beers and they even have a dedicated Uiltje section too.

  • 5/5 Thomas Madsen (. 1 year ago on Google
    Couple of hours to spend in Amsterdam and lucky we managed to find the Beer Temple. Said to have more than 300 different beers. Part of their menu is easy to find on app "Untapped". Few choices for food as well. We tried some of their cheese. Stunning bar for craft beers!

  • 5/5 Steinar J. 1 year ago on Google
    Really is a beer temple. Especially if you’re into American craft brews. A lot of tap options. 30-40 or something. Solid breweries. Not all are from the US but at least predominantly US style. Can be a good diversification from the Belgian/Dutch beers that you mostly find in Amsterdam. The bar is dark and a bit dingy, with rock music playing. So excellent. Did not try the food.

  • 5/5 Zoltán S. 1 year ago on Google
    The Beer Temple is just amazing. An enormous number of tasty craft beers. We tried six different ones. All great. The seletion is great the service is fantastic. I recommend this place to all who appreciate fine craft beers.

  • 5/5 J. H. 2 years ago on Google
    The barkeeper made my day. I had a stout tasting and was really impressed of the selection of all 4 beers on tap! Recommended and I’ll definitely come back soon.

  • 5/5 Fernando T. 1 year ago on Google
    Amazing beer selection, great snacks, and the service is superb. You can easily spend hours here talking to the bartender while enjoying amazing American beer.

👍👍 The perfect place to enjoy high-quality seafood at a reasonable price. Was surprised to see this large restaurant buzzing at 5pm (both inside and outside!) but after seeing the fresh fish on display and trying the sashimi which just melts in the mouth I understood why. The staff were also very well-...
