Beer Tasting Experience in the Jordaan

Step into a traditional Dutch brown bar and discover Amsterdam's proud brewing heritage — one carefully selected beer at a time.

An Authentic Taste of Amsterdam's Local Life

Make your way to the charming Jordaan neighborhood and discover one of Amsterdam's most authentic local experiences. Just a 5-minute walk from the Anne Frank House, tucked away on a picturesque canal-side street, you'll find Café Pierewaaier — a traditional bar where locals and travelers alike come together over great beer and good conversation.

Step inside and feel the warmth of Dutch hospitality. Your local barman will guide you through a tasting of three carefully selected beers, each with its own story and character. The selection changes regularly, so every visit is a new discovery.

Everything You Need for a Perfect Time

🍺

3 Carefully Selected Beers

Taste three generous 200ml pours, each chosen to showcase a different style and character. The selection rotates regularly — from light and crisp to dark and complex.

🧀

Traditional Bar Snacks

Between sips, enjoy a selection of traditional bar snacks — the perfect accompaniment to your tasting and a true taste of local culture.

🏠

Authentic Brown Bar Atmosphere

Experience it all inside a genuine Amsterdam brown bar, complete with stained glass, warm lighting, and the kind of atmosphere you can only find in the Jordaan.

More Than Just a Beer Tasting

Whether you're a beer enthusiast or simply curious about local traditions, this experience offers an intimate glimpse into how Amsterdammers have been socializing for generations.

Pull up a barstool, raise your glass, and say "Proost!"

Your local barman doesn't just serve beer — they share the stories behind every brew, the history of the Jordaan, and the traditions that make Amsterdam's pub culture so special. This isn't a tourist attraction — it's real Amsterdam life.

And the best part? No fixed timeslot. Just pick afternoon or evening, walk in anytime during your timeframe, and enjoy at your own pace. No rushing, no schedules. Just the way the locals do it.

Hi, I'm Juul

Originally from Utrecht, I moved to Amsterdam over 25 years ago — and never looked back. What started as a love for this city's canals, cafes, and character turned into a life spent sharing it with others.

For over 15 years I've worked at the crossroads of hospitality and tourism, and in that time I've discovered the places most visitors walk right past — the hidden gems, the local favorites, the spots where real Amsterdammers go. That's exactly what I want to share with you.

Juul's Amsterdam Experience is my way of giving you a taste of the city I know and love. Not the tourist version — the real one. Whether it's a beer tasting in a brown bar that's been here for generations, or a bitterbal that makes you understand why the locals are so proud of them — these are the experiences that make Amsterdam special.
