About
Als onafhankelijke familiebrouwerij genieten we al sinds 1825 van onze vrijheid. De vrijheid om onze eigen koers te varen en alleen te doen wat goed voelt. De vrijheid om de smaak van bier niet af te vlakken, maar te verrijken en continu te zoeken naar vernieuwende smaken. Die vrijheid ervaren wij al 8 generaties en dat proef je terug in onze 16 speciaalbieren. We hebben een sterke band met onze omgeving en zijn graag van waarde voor de wereld om ons heen. Daarom brouwen we bier met water uit eigen bronnen, gebruiken we hop uit eigen hoptuin en komt onze gerst van boeren uit de regio. Dit alles houdt onze ‘voetafdruk’ laag en maakt Gulpener tegelijkertijd tot het enige echte bier van Nederlands bodem.

Onze hop komt ook uit de regio. In Reijmerstok, een dorpje op steenworpafstand van de brouwerij, verbouwt familie Wouters volledig milieuvriendelijk drie hopsoorten die onmisbaar zijn voor onze bieren. Het oogsten van de prachtige hopbellen is elk jaar weer een bijzonder moment. Samen met familie en vrienden van de brouwerij oogsten we dan niet alleen onze hop, de basis van onze karaktervolle bieren, we vieren ook het feit dat we vrij zijn. Vrij om onze eigen koers te varen en alleen te doen wat goed voelt.

In 2026 overgenomen door Grolsch.

On tap at the Pianeta Birra, Rimini, Italy.
Deep golden coloured, medium sized white head, stinky sawdust (the most appropriate description) nose. Taste is also sawdust with notes of bread, cereals and something strange. Is there any hamster aboard???

Bad bready aroma. The flavour is also a bit bready. Quite sweet and not a Dortmunder IMO.

Bottled. Amber coloured, mediumsized creamy head, which vanished quite quickly. Aroma is honey, alcohol and fruits. Flavour is alcohol, spices, fruits and even some yeast. Kind of sweet, but finish is bitterish hops.

Small off-white head over foxy-amber beer, with a slight haze. Cookies, baker’s yeast and sweet rum-based liqueur, sweet raisinbread (seeped in rum) and at the ende, cumin aroma. Sweet spiced cake - kruidkoek the Dutch would say - (if this is Deventer kruidkoek, and spiced with cumin (the contents speak of no spices!) as in Leidse cheese - this must be the "All Holland" beer, no?). Very aromatic malts (and grains) anyway. Medium bodied, some traces of alcohol warming (and somehow, I guess, fusels). A 4-grains beer made with the mix of bottom- and topfermenting yeasts, and, following the ingredients listing, no spicing (???). Seen the aromatic properties, these yeasts must be primordial. Gets an extra .1 for originality.

(Bottle 33 cl) Clear, fully golden with a creamy, off-white head. Nice rich maltiness in the aroma. Fairly light body with some lovely, lightly caramelish accents and then a fairly solid hopping. Nice. 151206

5.9/10 — Appearance 8 Aroma 6 Flavor 5 Texture 6 Overall 5.5
(Bottle 50 cl) Beautiful, clear mahogany with a tint of red. Small, creamy, light brown head. Weak aroma of roasted malt and caramel. Medium-bodied with sweetish, roasted malt notes and some lightly spiced, perfumy notes. Quite nice really - and perhaps the best Dutch Oud Bruin I’ve had. 291006

Bottled (BB 01/2007). Clear dark ruby color, small white head. Spicey Christmasy nose, gingerbread aroma: ginger and clove. Quite light and watery. Lightly roasted malty, lager-like base brew mixed with same spices like in the aroma. Maybe with Christmas food this is satisfactory, but otherwise too weak for being real "winter warmer".
