“I'm going to go out on a limb and if my memory recalls, our guide name was Bernie. The guide was lively and very informative.

I want to also mention that the wine and cheese selection was great!!! I would definitely recommend.”

Taste five Dutch craft beers with cheese, sausage, and local stories at ClinkNOORD, a relaxed Amsterdam tasting near Central Station.
“Our guide arrived a couple of minutes after the event was supposed to start and she never really recovered. (apparently her bus was late, it happens) We tasted several good beers and had some nice snacks - but four of the five beers were from the same brewery and the guide didn't do much beyond serving us and reading the labels.
