I apologize for posting this in more than one forum but time is of the essence for me.

I have a friend who's in Amsterdam today and tommorow and has offered to pick up some beer for me. He was told that there's an excellent beer store called something like "Bierkonig" but he wasn't sure of the exact name. If anyone knows the exact name of this shop (with street address and/or URL) it would be greatly appreciated. Any other recommendations for beer shopping in Amsterdam would be greatly appreciated.

He's leaving on 17 March so the info won't do me any good after that time.

Thanks in advance.

I found 'em, unfortunately I don't speak Dutch, though I've used my German to fake my way through some of the pages.

Sorry I didn't read this sooner. I might be too late...

The Bier Koning (Beer King) is pretty easy to find. Coming from the direction of the train station, when you get to the Dam square the palace will be on your right. Turn and face the palace. When facing the palace the street that goes along side it on the left is Paleis Straat (palace street). The Bier Koning is 1 1/2 blocks behind the palace on the left side of Paleis Straat.

You can pretty much much find anything there, including all three Westvleterens.

I hope this isn't too late for you.
