Take bus 21 to Van Hallstraat/Westergasfabriek, or tram 5, which terminates at Westergasfabriek. You can also walk it in about 25 minutes through the Haarlemmerbuurt. The route ends on the Overtoom, where tram 1 runs back towards Leidseplein. This is the longest route. The first two legs are about 1.7 km each: Westergas to Hugo de Grootplein, then down through the Kinkerbuurt to the Overtoom. If your legs are tired, there are trams along the Kinkerstraat. Optional detour: ’t Blauwe Theehuis in the Vondelpark is Brouwerij ’t IJ's park tasting room, a short walk from Gollem's Proeflokaal. Its hours weren't checked for this guide. Gollem's Proeflokaal is the best place to stop for a proper meal on this route. **Alcohol-free and pacing:** ask at the bar for alcohol-free beers and soft drinks, and remember a half is always fine. Eat along the way, drink water between stops, and skip a stop whenever you like. [More tips](https://thecraftbeercrawl.com/responsible-drinking/).
