Gebrouwen door Vrouwen
Gebrouwen door Vrouwen is an Amsterdam beer brand founded by sisters Tessel and Do de Heij. They make approachable specialty beers with a twist: a blonde beer with elderflower, a pale ale with ginger and a weizen with gin botanicals. Here you can read about who is behind the brand, which beers are available and how to drink them.
Two sisters and a kitchen pot
Gebrouwen door Vrouwen started as a hobby for Amsterdam sisters Tessel and Do de Heij. They brewed their first beer in the kitchen and turned it into a real business in 2015. The name says it all: the brand wants to show that brewing and drinking beer are not just for men.
Gebrouwen door Vrouwen does not have its own brewing equipment. The sisters create the recipes and have their beers brewed at other Dutch breweries. This type of brand is also known as a contract brewer or gypsy brewer. In Amsterdam, they do have their own bar, where you can enjoy the beers on tap.
The beers are easy to drink and always have something extra: elderflower, ginger, herbs or fruit. Well-known regular beers include Bloesem Blond, Gember Goud, Gin Weizen and Tricky Tripel. Seasonal beers are also released.
In brief
Elderflower, ginger and a gift pack
At Gall & Gall, you will find three Gebrouwen door Vrouwen products: the blonde beer with elderflower in a large bottle for sharing, the fresh pale ale with ginger, and a gift pack with a glass.
Bloesem Blond
A blonde beer with elderflower. Floral on the nose with a fresh finish. The large bottle is convenient for sharing.
Gember Goud
A light pale ale with the spiciness of ginger. Sparkling and fresh, and at 4.6% the lightest beer in this range.
Gift pack with glass
Four beers with herbs and distinctive, approachable flavors, with a Gebrouwen door Vrouwen glass in the middle.
From blond and wheat beer to tripel and IPA: all types of specialty beer in one overview.
Fresh, floral and just a little different
Floral and fresh
Elderflower gives it a floral, slightly sweet aroma. The beer is full-bodied enough for 6.2%, but finishes fresh.
Spicy and light
You can clearly taste the ginger, with a tingling spiciness. Light-bodied and pleasantly thirst-quenching.
Spicy
Both beers finish fresh and slightly spicy. They are not heavily bitter, so they are also good for people who do not like hoppy beer.
Average flavor profile. Bloesem Blond scores higher in sweetness and strength, while Gember Goud is lighter and spicier.
How to pour these beers
Drink Gebrouwen door Vrouwen chilled from a glass so you can smell the elderflower and ginger properly.
Chilled, around 5 to 7 degrees
Put the bottles in the fridge for a few hours. If they are too cold, the elderflower and ginger fade into the background. Take the bottle out of the fridge briefly before pouring.
More about pouring beer →Sharing the large bottle
The 75 cl bottle of Bloesem Blond is made for sharing. Pour it at the table into two or three glasses, just like a bottle of wine. Seal an opened bottle tightly and drink it the same day.
Taste them side by side
The gift pack gives you a small tasting right away. Start with the lightest beer and finish with the strongest.
Home beer tasting →Gebrouwen door Vrouwen at the table
Beer with elderflower and ginger pairs well with fresh, spicy dishes.
Spring and summer
With a salad with goat cheese, asparagus or grilled chicken. The elderflower complements fresh herbs.
Asian
With sushi, Thai curry or spring rolls. The ginger in the beer complements the ginger in the food.
Snacks
With cheeses, olives and nuts. Light enough to enjoy for a few hours.
Fruit
Bloesem Blond is also delicious with a fruit salad or lemon tart.
The right glass for Gebrouwen door Vrouwen
A tulip or goblet-shaped glass keeps the aroma of elderflower and ginger. For the large bottle, use a few generously sized glasses.
