Description
Wij zijn Brouwerij Zuyd! een jonge, experimentele craftbrouwerij in hartje Maastricht die gelooft in innovatie in de bierwereld.

We are brewery Zuyd, a craft beer brewery from the south of the Netherlands. Maastricht. Since 2016, we have been producing the most challenging beers in town here, in the cellars of the Tapijn Barracks. And all this with one goal: "to show how cool and tasty craft beers from KLimburg can be". Because let's face it ... with that Burgundian character from us, you expect beautiful beers.

In the beginning, the Zuyd beers were not brewed in our own brew kettles. But at our friends at Brouwerij Maximus. In the year 2017, we looked for a location to brew as one of the first breweries beers on Maastricht ground. Finally, after a long search. We found in the cellars of the old canteen of an army barracks named the ‘Tapijn Kazerne’ a perfect place to brew.

In 2019 a new core range was born and the start of a ‘Special range’ the ‘Zuyd Craft series’.

(Draft at Arendsnest, Amsterdam, 22 Feb 2025) Golden colour with frothy, white head. Fruity, hoppy nose with notes of citrus, grapefruit, tropical fruit and resin. Fruity, hoppy taste with citrus, grapefruit, peaches, toast, resin and a balanced citric/resiny bitterness in the finish. More than medium body, with a slight sweetness. Refreshing and well balanced DIPA. Very nice.

Bottle shared with the chefs, Advent Box nr 6. Intensely spicy but somehow it’s not the usual phenonlics that show, carbonation is too low and the malt character or residual sugars are too much for the style. Not tragic tho.

Bottle from Mr. Hop. Aroma is spicy and yeasty with malt, coriander, some sugary fruit, touch of banana. Flavour is medium sweet with a light bitterness. Medium body. Decent Tripel, on the spicy side though.

Bottle. Quite sweet with an aroma of coffee, lactose, milk chocolate. Too sweet, milky. Above medium body. Some dark malt and coffee, but the sweetness distracts too much.

Bottle 0,33ltr: Dark amber with an red glow colored brew. Dry bitter taste with hints of roasted toast and caramel. I think they missed Vos beer from defunct brewery de Ridder from Maastricht witch owned by Heineken and closed it. Don't worry this is much better to drink.
