Description
Stadsbrouwerij de Dikke brouwt traditioneel Wijks Kuytbier naar de Utrechtse ordonantie van 1495. Hierin staat beschreven dat Kuytbier gebrouwen moest worden met een zeer groot gedeelte Haver als mout, de grondstof voor bier.
Omdat gewoon water vroeger niet gezond was om te drinken dronk iedereen bier. Door het brouwproces was bier betrouwbaarder dan water. Zelfs kinderen dronken bier, de dunne variant met 2% alcohol.
Het Wijkse bier was een zogenaamd dikbier (hoog alcohol-percentage van 6,5%). Vandaar de door ons gekozen naam.
