Brouwerij 't IJ has been brewing unique Amsterdam specialty beers since 1985. Musician Kasper Peterson founded the company after he became acquainted with Belgian beer styles. As a member of the band Door Mekaar, he regularly performed in Belgium and developed an above-average interest in the beer of our southern neighbors. Because similar specialty beers were hardly brewed in the Netherlands, he decided to do it himself.
