If you’re after a true taste of modern Dutch brewing then head to Brouwerij ‘t IJ, where their beer is brewed and served on-site and almost never leaves the building before it fills your glass. Their Indian Pale Ale is a bestseller, plus on sunny summer afternoons you can enjoy a pint out on their terrace, or take their short brewery tour if you fancy a tasting session of all of their home-brews.
The city is full of world-class nightclubs where everyone can party with some famous DJs and plenty of touring bands. If you’re looking for something mainstream then there are plenty of clubs and bars where you can enjoy great drinks and food starting at 10 Euros, perfect for any budget.
