Stadsbrouwerij De Pelgrim is a craft brewery founded in 1996, nestled in the heart of Historisch Delfshaven — one of Rotterdam's best-preserved historic neighbourhoods. The brewery takes its name from the Pilgrim Fathers, who departed from Delfshaven in 1620 on their journey to the New World, giving the location a deep historical resonance. Brewing on-site using pure Rotterdam water, De Pelgrim has become one of the city's most iconic brewing destinations. The brewery is known for its traditionally brewed Pilgrim beers, crafted in characteristic red-copper kettles that are visible on-site. With a portfolio of around 12 beers, De Pelgrim focuses on artisanal brewing methods that reflect both craftsmanship and local pride. The range spans various Dutch and specialty beer styles, making it a go-to spot for lovers of quality craft beer in Rotterdam. Beyond the beer itself, Stadsbrouwerij De Pelgrim offers a full brewery experience, including guided tours combined with beer tastings of around 30 minutes. The brewery has also been highlighted in Lonely Planet's Best in Travel 2016, cementing its reputation as a must-visit destination in Rotterdam. With its 30th anniversary celebrated in 2026, De Pelgrim continues to be a living piece of Rotterdam's brewing heritage.
