Today and I went to another Dutch beer brewery. This time it was not far from home, because this brewery is actually the closest to our home. in Hilversum. This brewery was started by two couples who wanted to create a "streek bier" (area beer) for "het Gooi". Now it is run by one of the two couples and Guido. We had a lovely day here at the Gooische Bier Brouwerij and got a wonderful tour and tasting hosted by Aron and Guido. This beer brewery is located in a foodhall. The beers are brewed in the traditional styles and are very very tasty and good quality! Today I was on a mission to try and detect if it was brewed bottom fermentation or top fermentation. The first 5 I got right the last one I was not shure and guest wrong so I'm getting there! I was really impressed by their Grape Ale! Loved it! We also got a bottle from their stout that was matured on barrels from our friend Ian Forteath. So we have something fun to try at home as well. Thanks guys!
