Oud West - l'Affiche

After El Punto Latino I decided to drink another beer on my way home. I've been in l'Affiche on the Jacob van Lennepstraat before but couldn't really remember anything about it cuz I was sitting on their terrace in the sun back then. This time I decided to sit at the bar and just have a chat. I walked in and noticed the good music and that everything was made of wood. Wood bar, stools, six tables or so and lots of posters on the wall (hence the name of the bar).
I drank a Brand beer (€2,00) and found out that they've also got La Chouffe, Wittenkerke, Zatte from the IJ brewery and a beer I'd never heard of before: Lousberg... I bought the bottle (€3,00) and it's in my fridge now waiting for me to be opened. This is a nice place to relax and just have a chat... Go there after a hectic night out, just for a nightcap.

Small Beer Break

After last week I'm having a small beer break this week. Last week Tuesday I got pissed, drank too much whisky, scotch and beer in a very short period of time while playing poker. Wednesday I went out to Kale where they have on tap:
Amstel € 2,00
Wieckse Witte
Palm and
La Chouffe
And in bottles:
Duvel
Westmalle Tripel
Westmalle Dubbel
Corona
Natte and Zatte... Mmmmm.
Thursday I went back there and then to Montmartre after with Heineken, Heineken Ice on tap, Heineken Longneck, Wieckse Witte and Amstel Mald in a bottle to watch the semifinal of the Eurovision Song Contest. Friday.... Kale again, then Bitterzoet (see below), Saarein and Soundgarden. And.....
Saturday I went to the Meibock Festival and then to a friend after to see the Eurovision Song Contest Finals... Pffffffffff, Quite a week....

Bax

Went to Utrecht today, not gonna mention the prices of beers there cuz they are lower then in Amsterdam and have got nothing to do with this website... What I will mention is Cafe Bax on the Ten Kate market. This is a great bar with great service and good (not too expensive) food.
They also got live music and pub quizzes which are very rare in Amsterdam. Bad things? None. Good things? Terrace, service, food, entertainment, Palm, Weihenstephaner, La Chouffe, Zatte and Leeuw (€ 1,90) on tap and Corona, Koninck, Westmalle Tripel, Westmalle Dubbel, Guinness, Zatte, Columbus, Weihenstephaner Dunkel, Weihenstephaner Mald, Biturger Mald and Boon Brewery's Kriek in bottles.... Probably the best place to get nice beers in this area.

Tomorrow, tomorrow...

Tomorrow I've got a day off. Actually I've got Tuesday off as well. And a bonus is that it's gonna be 26 degrees celcius (80 degrees fahrenheit). So it sounds like a nice day to get up early, get fed properly and cycle around town to enjoy the weather and try out some new places I haven't been to yet and see what the prices of beer are (and what else they got). Maybe I'll cycle down to the east of Amsterdam and go by the IJ brewery and have a nice Natte or Zatte on their terrace... I'll see, as long as there's sun and as long as I can sit outside I'm happy. Maybe I'll finally get a sun tan.
