Rotterdam is a place with a turbulent history. The city was almost completely destroyed in the turmoil of the Second World War, but today, just over 75 years later, it is the second largest in the Netherlands. More than 600,000 people from all over the world call it home. After the war, the entire area was rebuilt, which is why the cityscape is currently dominated by towering skyscrapers and the ultra-modern port. Sights include the zoo, Villa Dijkzigt, the cathedral and mosque, numerous parks and green spaces, museums and the many small pubs, restaurants and bars. The Netherlands has a centuries-old beer culture that is firmly anchored in everyday life. Strolling through the streets, you will find groups of people sitting together happily, enjoying a beer and having lively conversations, at any time of the day or year.
Brouwerij Noordt is one of the companies responsible for modern craft beer in Rotterdam. The young team came together more than 10 years ago and immediately began planning their own brewery. After countless visits to the Rotterdam city area, they finally found what they were looking for: the spacious halls of the former fire station in Rotterdam Noordt fulfilled all the wishes and ideas of the budding brewers and were also strategically well located. The foundation stone for Brouwerij Noordt was laid in 2014 and a year later they brewed the first batch. For their range of tasty craft beers, the brewers draw on both the traditional craftsmanship of their ancestors and modern techniques. All beers are brewed without artificial additives and flavor enhancers, and most even follow the rules of the Bavarian Purity Law. But the team is not too strict in this respect: in order not to stand in the way of their desire to experiment, the brewers also allow themselves to use raw materials that are not permitted by the Purity Law.
The motto and guideline for daily work comes from Peter Rouwen, the head of the brewery. He says: "If you don't want to improve this job, you'd better do something else." and motivates his staff to get a little better every day. The brewery invites curious visitors to come and see the brewing process for themselves. After the brewery tour, you can taste the creations in the taproom and have a fantastic selection of 20 taps that serve the latest beers. With its great passion, uncompromising dedication and beers with strong character, Brouwerij Noordt today wins over people from all over the world - and of course us too!
