There was a great beer selection. We tried a trippel and ipa and lager. The selection was large and it was hard to narrow it down. The bartender was helpful and helped us pick the best local brews. We shared some cheese and charcuterie and drank some more. We hoped that the rain would not end for a while so we could stay longer.

It has a bit of space inside, but it fills up very quickly towards the weeknights and weekends, so be sure to grab a spot earlier. The service is really great, and they help you find a beer that fits you. Definitely check it out in summer too. They have a cute little outdoor seating space that faces out to the canal on a not so busy street. So it has great views even from outside.

A beer hall smack dab in the city center of Delft…read more They are notable in the sense that they have a wide variety of beer: - 14 beers on tap - 200 bottled beers from Belgium and the Netherlands. Their beer selection has depth because not only do they carry traditional Belgian beer (Westvleteren, Rochefort, Delirium, etc...) but they also carry Dutch beer from brewers big and small, from the well-established to the newer, smaller businesses. According to the bartender, although the Netherlands' beer history is not as well-known as Belgium, more people are starting to appreciate Dutch craft breweries, hence the prevalence of the newer Dutch brews in the bars. Take that, Heineken. (For the record, I didn't see Heineken on the menu). For those that are overwhelmed by the beer selection they offer a tasting menu of 6 pre-selected beers from their tap for €14. This amounts to 3 beers. Though I didn't have a taster myself, I appreciate the thought that came to it because it represents good depth in the tap list BUT there's also one German beer and Guinness. For both of my visits the bartenders were quite nice. One of them gave me a mini history lecture on the Dutch craft brewery scene. I am ashamed to admit that for both of my visits I had Belgian beer. But this bar is notable in that it was one of the first bars in the Netherlands to serve Belgian beer. I had a Delirium Tremens on tap and Rochefort 10 on the bottle. Both are excellent brews. In true fashion the beers are served in their respective glasses. - Of note is that they offer Westvleteren 12 for €13. This is a much more fair price for the bottle whereas if you go to Belgium the price is marked up significantly. Indoor and outdoor seating. Lots of smokers sitting outside. They also have a food menu if needed.
