The Heineken Experience in Amsterdam is an unique experience and not be compared with any kind of museum. The four levels are filled with interactive experiences and you will learn everything about the fascinating world of Heineken! See, smell, hear and taste it.
 


The Heineken Experience is to be found in the former main brewery of Heineken, where the first Heineken was brewed in 1867. Later on in 1988 they moved the production into a more modern building and in 1991 the old brewery was turned into a visitor center which is called now “The Heineken Experience” - one of the mayor attractions of Amsterdam nowadays.

 
Get an insight into how Heineken produces its premium lager and smell and feel the ingredients of the famous beer. BUT: The Heineken Experience offers way more than just a visit to an ordinary brewery: you can follow the process of beer production, you can even touch it and.. no kidding: have a bath in a virtual brew kettle. The Heineken guides are waiting for you at each station.. so you are not in any hurry following a guided tour - take your time and stop at each station as long as YOU want!
