Let us tell you the story of how a small, Dutch brewery became the world’s most premium brand of beer. The world of Heineken® is one best experienced through all the senses; we’ll let you feel the hops and smell the authentic scents of the brewery. It’s all there.
We've been around for over 150 years, so you can imagine we have seen a thing or two. Take a walk through the halls where it all happened, let us serve you our heritage and see the evolution to the world-class brand we are today.
Deep dive into Heineken history from the comfort of your home. Available to all, you can now read up on your favourite beer brand and other beers of the Heineken family!
Of course, we won’t send you on your way without finishing strong - with a nice, fresh Heineken® beer in the Best ‘Dam Bar. Meet tourists and locals alike, share memories and plan your next trip to make new ones.
The Heineken Experience is a brand experience within Heineken’s oldest brewery, in the heart of Amsterdam. In 1988 the former brewery closed down, because we got too big for our boots. Today, the historical building serves as a venue where you can learn all about Heineken heritage, the brewing process, our sometimes crazy innovations, sponsoring and the story behind the star. You’ll also learn about the best way to taste and enjoy your Heineken beer.
Our building is located at Stadhouderskade 78, 1072AE, Amsterdam, The Netherlands.
We are open year-round, just like the city of Amsterdam! Unlike Amsterdam, we need our beauty sleep. We would love for you to visit us during our opening hours:
