 Heineken experience!
On March 13 the members of JCC visited the Heineken Experience, Amsterdam. It was a joyful and very interesting visit, which gave an overall view of Heinekens history and the process of brewing beer. During the tour the guests were given the chance to taste the beer through the different stages of the brewing process and to learn how to taste a beer in the right way! This was an excellent opportunity for JCC members to catch up with old friends and to meet new JCC members! After the tour and presentations the group continued the evening at the bar Het Paardje with drinks and fun in a very nice atmosphere.
