Celebration of Beer and Wine
Blend your passion for travel with your affinity for enjoying a “cold one” as you learn more about Europe’s rich brewing traditions and cultural connections on AmaWaterways’ new immersive beer-themed river cruises. Support local brewing communities with a lively beer culture, such as Düsseldorf and Cologne along the Rhine River, and Bruges and Utrecht along the Dutch and Belgian Waterways, guided by local brewmasters.
