The tasting room is well appointed and the outdoor patio area is pretty large. They primarily brew organic craft beers leaning towards Belgian influences. The beers we had were spectacular. Far superior than anything I've had in America and we've got some darn good breweries. My favorite is the Zatte Tripel. The food offerings were perfectly European. We shared a board of bread, sausages, cheese, olives, and nuts. Service was fast and friendly.

So cool I could cry beer tears of joy! If you like craft beer and getting away from tourist areas…read moreyou are going to explode with excitement at this place. You wander down a weird looking street that is full of car garages on an industrial estate and you get to what looks like an abandoned factory of some type. Not much has been done to the place in terms of Turning it into a bar, other than adding some taps, tables, a record player and some fridges. The beer is brewed on site and is so cheap. Green cap was only £1.80 a goblet. It was a pale ale, but did have a Belgium hint to it. It tasted great though. The women serving was very friendly, there was loads of interesting locals to (people) watch, huge roller doors so you could view the world, a friendly dog running about outside, blankets if you get cold and lots of great beer. It's sort of hard to explain, but it was like drinking home brew in someone's tiled garage on an industrial estate. Your either gonna love it or hate it. For me it was paradise. And soooooo cheap!

It comes with four samples, plus a taster size water and a baby bowl of peanuts. What a nice touch! I hate peanut butter in beer (like it's the worst thing ever created, ew), but peanuts WITH beer is a great idea. I had the bitterblond, scotch, barleywine, and tripel. They were all top quality. I gave the scotch away though. Too peaty for me. All in all a very cool place to hang out. If I had longer time in the city, I would've returned for sure.

Only three stars because I think this brewery does not do a good job at its core assigment:…read morebrewing. The beers I tasted were without exception novelty beers, with overly fruity, herby or bitter tastes. Get your pilsener right and other basics right, first! The food however was excellent. Troost has gone full vegetarian on their burgers and this was the first time in my life I tasted that vegetarian burger replacements have a future. Texture and flavours were spot on. Wouldn't mind coming back for the burgers and will accept that the beers are not as I would like them.

Visited this awesome brewery while on vacation and I wish we had something like this back at home!…read moreIt was a very cool, chill spot with plenty of room inside and a handful of tables outside which all are equipped with heaters so it's comfortable. There were a good variety on tap, except for one time they were literally out of everything but we found something else that we liked. I tried the IPA and the Honey beer and both were very crisp and fresh. They had a menu with little bites but we didn't try any. It's a nice spot to stop for a beer after a long day of walking and sightseeing, and I could see this as a nice spot to meet with friends after work if you're from the area.

They offer you several beers home made with only natural and biological ingredients accomplished with some suitable variable cheese which gives it a perfect combination.

From the owner: Wat is brouwerij De 7 Deugden? Brouwerij De 7 Deugden is een…read moresplinternieuwe brouwerij in het Westen van Amsterdam. We brouwen bijzonder bier. Het is bier om langzaam van te genieten, het liefst met een lekker stukje kaas of een ander hapje erbij. Het is bier waar je trots op kunt zijn - zeker als je mee hebt gewerkt om het te maken. In de brouwerij werken mensen die (nog) geen gewone baan kunnen krijgen. Dat kunnen mensen zijn met een handicap of mensen die na een geestelijke ziekte weer terug willen keren in het gewone leven. Of het zijn mensen die om een andere reden moeite hebben met het vinden van een baan. In brouwerij De 7 Deugden werken maximaal 8 mensen tegelijkertijd. Dat is een kleine groep, en daardoor kunnen we iedereen goed begeleiden bij zijn werk. De brouwer zorgt er samen met alle medewerkers voor dat de sfeer in de brouwerij plezierig is, en dat iedereen zich er veilig voelt. Dat is belangrijk, want alleen in een veilige omgeving kun je goed leren en werken. Wat kun je doen? Er is heel veel te doen in de brouwerij. De belangrijkste taken zijn: - meewerken bij het brouwen en verpakken van bier - ontvangen en begeleiden van bezoekers. - We maken mooi bier waar we trots op kunnen zijn.

I was expecting it to be a little spicer than it was--so I added some of their hot sauce which is excellent. The one thing I didn't like about the sandwich is they use American cheese. There are SO many amazing cheeses out there--I'll never understand why any restaurant--aside from fast food ones--use American cheese. It would be a lot better with real cheese. Their fries were good, and their bartender Sean is attentive and makes good conversation. I'll come back, but I'd order something else next time

We grabbed menus and, before we could crack them open, he was back with English menus - something must have given us away as being tourists. ; ) We opted for a table outside. I started with Bobby's gin - with closed pushed into orange slices and cinnamon stick added, it's amazingly refreshing & not terribly priced. BONUS: paper staw Of course, we had to get bitterballen. Say what you will, a hefty dose of mustard and these lil balls are the perfect sidekick for a brew. I went with the chicken and waffle. The sweet waffle paired nicely with the savory chicken. Other dishes at our table: sausage, schnitzel and fries... plus a few beers. I'd suggest getting the house recommendation of half chicken... it smells amazing and was being devoured by regulars all around us. The place was hopping - the line for the toilet was longer than the wait for our food. Service great... drinks inconsistent - as 2 others ordered Bobby's gin & they weren't garnished the same as the original one, tho equally delicious. Solid 4
