In 2016 werd de naam van de brouwerij gewijzigd van de Veluwse Heidebrouwerij naar De Heidebrouwerij en werd eigendom van Siphelo BV.. Vanaf dat moment werd er geen bier meer gebrouwen in de brouwerij.
Sinds 2018 wordt het pand op het terrein van de voormalige Mauritskazerne alleen gebruikt voor opslag en demonstraties bierbrouwen. Diverse bronnen melden dat bier voor De Heidebrouwerij alleen nog in België bij Leroy wordt gebrouwen.

Bottle at home. As Vincent Donker. Aroma is sweet dark malt, caramel, ripe dark fruit, berries, yeast, some spicy notes, nice touch of coffee in the finish and a hint of cocoa. Flavour is sweet. Body is medium, has a fair creamy smoothness to it. Quite sweet Doppelbock for my taste, but I like the subtle coffee notes. *** Re-rate, tricked by the change in name. Not as good as when I had it under the other name in 2016.

Bottle at home. Best before august 2018, really? An IPA? Oh well. Aroma is sweetish malt, caramel, resin, fruits, ripe orange, touch of hops. Flavour is above moderate sweet with a little bitterness in the finish. Body is medium. Rather malty and sweet, not nearly as fruity and bitter hoppy as I like my IPA, but it has a nice resinous aroma. I suppose this would probably taste the almost the same in august 2018...

Bottle at home. Aroma is floral, sugary, light malt, rather spicy, fruits, touch of peach. Flavour is sweet with only a little bitterness in the finish. Body is medium. A bit bland, way too sugary Tripel.

Bottle at home. Aroma is malt, old rotten fruits, weird honey, metallic notes, Iron Man’s Mark III armour, apples. Flavour is moderate sweet and with a little bitterness in the finish. Body is medium. Wow, surprisingly horrible thanks to the disgusting aroma.

Bottle from Speciaalbierpakket. Aroma is grainy malt and straw with a hint of cardboard. Flavour is mildly sweet and moderate bitter. Body is medium, bit bland on the palate. Overall I found this a very average, bit bland Pilsener.
