The Amsterdam Brewing Company is a microbrewery based in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. It was founded by Dutchman Roel Bramer and is now headed by Jeff Carefoote.
The company began in September 1986 as The Amsterdam Brasserie and Brewpub in a former tire re-treading plant on John Street in the then nascent Toronto Entertainment District. A second brewpub location with a larger brewing capacity was opened as The Rotterdam on King Street West in 1988. In 1993, the former was closed, and operations were consolidated at the latter under the current name The Amsterdam Brewing Company, with a focus as a microbrewery. The company subsequently moved to its present location on Bathurst Street near Fort York.
In 2003, Amsterdam Brewing purchased Kawartha Lakes Brewing of Peterborough, Ontario which produces KLB Raspberry Wheat, KLB IPA, KLB Nut Brown and KLB Cream Ale.
