Our Heineken Experience

The next day of our Amsterdam trip, we cheered ourselves up with a tour of the Heineken brewery. Tickets were a bit steep at 15 euros per person, but the place was warm, which was becoming increasingly important.



The tour was fun and educational. We got to sample hops and barley, and we brewed our own wort, which looked and tasted like something you'd spend a lot of money on at a health food store.

After our first sample of the real thing, we were lured into singing Dutch folk songs and E-mailing the results to our friends. So much for drinking responsibly.
