Description
Brouwerij De Vriendschap werd in 2013 opgericht door Aart van Bergen en Peter Harms. In eerste instantie maakte de brouwerij gebruik van de brouwfaciliteiten van de Sallandse Landbier Brouwerij in Raalte. In de loop van 2014 opende de brouwerij haar eigen brouwerij in de kleedkamers van het voormalig sportpark De Melkweg. Eind 2015 begon Aart van Bergen zijn eigen brouwerij Walhalla Craft Beer. In 2016 staakte Peter Harms zijn brouwactiviteiten.
