Brouwerij Hoop

Beer flight

We stumbled upon this incredibly charming brewery while making our way from the Zaanse Schans, famous for all the windmills. The beer options available is not only super interesting but also wonderfully refreshing in flavor, making it a perfect stop. They definitely have unique flavors!

They are known for the beer so I expected just some simple food and didn’t have high expectations. But the food took us completely by surprise and tasted incredibly good, exceeding our expectations! The food paired extremely well with the selection of beers we had that afternoon. It's definitely a perfect spot to rest after seeing the windmills.

I should have taken pictures of the cozy inside and the outside, as both are lovely spots to relax and enjoy some drinking and eating.

Again, I highly recommend paying a visit to Brouwerij Hoop, as it offers a delightful experience for beer enthusiasts. If you find yourself in the area, you should definitely try to fit in a trip to Zaanse Schans as well, or perhaps do it the other way around. The iconic windmills there are truly beautiful and make for a picturesque backdrop that you won’t want to miss!
