I gave a quick look-up for Staropramen and found they have a pilsner and a lager? Perhaps others but I myself like a good skunky lager. What gets you salivating? Do you prefer their pilsner or lager?

Just going for a couple of days. Does anyone know if there's a Tai chi friendly park around the Museum square?

Clearly Amsterdam is wasted on you.
Originally posted by @trev33Rotterdamn has only 3 coffee shops compared to the 100's in A'dam. That place is very conservative. Groningen tothe north was fine. Pleasant folk who dont mind if you walk arond with a spliff. . . .And does Switzerland still have smoking carriages? Despite having anti weed laws I happily puffed away on a huge Marley , watching the alps roll by. Not even the old couple or even the ticket guy raised an eybrow. .. .. And the deportation policy is first class!!Spening money as well, without incurring any debt whatsoever!!
Did you see anywhere else in the Netherlands? Completely different, it's only Amsterdam were they have such slack laws regarding drugs and it's something the rest of the country is trying to change. Regular people don't want their biggest city to be seen as a drug and sex capital of Europe, the Dutch are actually in general quite conservative by nature.

Originally posted by @sonhouseDid you see all the straight people, teachers and lawyers as well? Paying extra to have their flight stop over there? Rushing from the train station then rushing back, giving away their pipes and stashes, fullof paranoia?
Yeah, saw all that. I also saw some really wasted druggies wandering around too but I guess that is the price of freedom.

I recommend the weed jelly beans. Didn't really "feel" them till I got back to familiar shores. It's a pity you can't bring edibles home, I hear the gummy bears are blitzkrieg good.
All the beers tasted fine in a country where you can Shag a hooker while smoking a joint, In front of the cops who make sure you don't get robbed while you're doing it.
Not that I did those things, but the whole vibe of the city was very groovy.
Me and the wife intend to go back without our daughter. I fancy dinner on a canal boat, to the smell of passing coffee shops. Definitely s thumbs up.
