Having a great time drinking barrel aged beer in Rotterdam with friends.

in #life7 years ago (edited)

Yesterday I went out with Bianca, Yves, Fabio and a whole bunch of other friends.

We all met up at the Fenix Food factory around 17:30.

It's an old factory rebuild to accommodated different food stalls with all the food one could want.

But for me, the best place in there is the Kaapse brewery.

They serve 30 specials beers on tap.

And it's delicious.

Bianca (@bkdbkd), Yves (@eqko) and me on our way to the Fenix Food factory. Whenever we go anywhere to go out we always go by bus and Metro to Rotterdam.

Coming out of the Metro you have to walk along the river to get to a bridge. The Food factory is on the other side of the river.

Crossing the bridge. I don't remember these locks being here last time. I guess we stole the idea from Paris.

Just outside the place we saw this. A wood powered hotplate. Yes, we did visit it later in the evening :)

But first things first. @eqko and I were thirsty and we ordering our first beer. It's not easy choosing from 30 beers on tap!

Later my friend Fabio (@fabrew) showed up. He loves beer and writes about it on Steemit. He just joined the platform. Here I am explaining the difference in STEEM tokens to him (STEEM, STEEMPOWER and SBD's).

The place has a great ambience.

We stayed in Rotterdam till the wee wee hours (read midnight, lol).

We are just not as young as we used to be :)

But what great time we had.

Good company with nice food and fantastic drinks. (and no loud music)

It's my favorite way of going out.

@exyle Very cool, I like your style, whether we can talk to each other here, or exchange ideas here.

Thanks!

@exyle Can I take your photo, then I edit it, and I post it in my steemit, should I do that.

Nothing better that beer friends and a good food. Regards

Agree! :)

@exyle just another wonderful day with Friends and a Few Beers. I have no idea what the Locks all over the chain link fence means, could you explain ??

I think it's to portray love between to people.

Excellent walk @exyle, especially when with friends and in a pleasant company and by your lucky faces you can immediately see that you had a great time :)

I had a lot of fun!

Wow @exlye picture are so awesome & you were looking cool. You full look like party mood! Lolz

Cheers~

Nothing like a good stout aged in old whiskey barrels. Looks like a fun place.

Friends, good food, fantastic beer and no loud music? Sounds like my kind of evening! Cheers!

@exyle,
Where I missed the update of "Bianca's arrival" :O yeah definitely I missed an article of yours!
Anyway that would be a great weekend as usual! Thanks for sharing this great experience with us!

Cheers~

@exyle, that looks like you had an awesome time!

Good friends+good food+good beer always equals a great time!💪😁🍺

wow nice writeup and still introduced a new member to the community while having fun killed two birds with 1 stone

That it's not easy to pick from 30 beers on tap was evident in that Flanders Red Ale that tastes like the souredt of vinigars. That was bad. Apart from that, it was a great evening with awesome company.

little sidenote, when you do mentions inside brackets, you need to add a space between the first bracket ( and the @ maybe even after the name and the closing bracket too

Let's forget about that one :)

My "cappuccino" beer was also kinda shit lol thanks for exchanging with me :D

yeah it was kinda shit, but I couldn't very well let you drink it, being the gentleman that I am :). So you're very much welcome ;D

Sure you had a great time, i can see it. Nice. Me too i had a great time today, in church.😁😁😁

Sometimes its good to spend time with friends or drinking beer with best buddies its looks cool and you can lose depression while chilling with friends :)

Nothing like relaxing and enjoying fun and food with good friends!

It's the best!

Nice place... time to go to rotterdam I guess. easier then a lot of other places I read about on steemit...;-)

very warm photos)
positive friendship)
is that beer black in the glasses? dark sort of beer?

and the locks! I thought its only Russian tradition, but it;s popular in many countries) news for me))

Barrel aged beer. Very dark this one was.

For me Friends Are life <3
i have these lovely friends on steemit
@moize @ryn @rynow @taimoorahmad @bebobaloch @joeblack1

We have the habit of "locking" love to bridges in Romania too. It's kind of corny but oh well.

i have a friend who is very fussy about real ale, she would rather pay a tenner for real ale than pay £2 for normal beer

Looks like a fun time!!

Rotterdam rules.. Vraagje: I hope you would consider to vote for me as witness as this could really help me achieving my goals. You used only a few votes and you have 30.. Did you see my witness profile? And would you help one of the few dutch witnesses?

This was great fun man and thanks for the crash course on Steem!
