Description
Folkingebrew was founded with the aim of brewing beer that we like to drink ourselves. That is why we make beers with a distinct character in taste, aroma and color.
Because of our passion for good beer, we try to get a little better with every beer and push our boundaries.
Folkinge, the first part of our name, refers to the location where we started brewing: in the 'backyard' of a beer shop on the Folkingestraat in Groningen. Brew refers to the American craft beer culture, where we get our inspiration.
Between 2018-2025 client brewer, became a brewery in 2025 but the large batches, which are canned, are still brewed at Baxbier.

CD 09/06. Hazy yellow, bit of white head. Smells a bit dry, a bit bitter, and quite fruity. Pithy citrus, bit of mango. Decent body, bit of a bite. Taste is nicely balanced, has some light sweetness and a lovely end bitter. Plenty citrus, hint of mango.

Can, 8.2%. Fruity and papery aroma. Cloudy pale yellow colour. Small frothy stable white head. The flavour is mildly hoppy with hay and plastic notes. Rough bitterness in the finish. The mouthfeel is a little thin for the style, but still OK.

0,44 l can, shared with my first son. Like thick orange juice with an one finger white head in the glass. Intensive fruity, mango and passion fruity smell. Taste is also fruity, sour but not as extreme as expected. Intensive and also really drinkable due to the hidden alcohol.

NEDIPA by a local craft brewery in Groningen which has nothing to do with the wild beers otherwise served at the Wild festival there - but a welcome distraction as such. 'Brugse kant'-like lacing, large-bubbled but firm, egg-white, slowly opening head on a hazy to even milky yellow blonde beer. Aroma of moldy oranges, lemon zest, granadilla, freshly cut green bell pepper, pizza Hawaii, oregano, paprika, dough, mandarin. Very lively and colourfully hop-fruity onset, a wave of granadilla, pineapple and pomelo, medium carbonated, sweetish but not too much so, bit minerally around the edges; citric sourishness adorns a milky, doughy core, drenched in strong herbality, oregano- and almost dill-like, green bell pepper even, mixing with the pineapple fruitiness in an almost pizza Hawaii-like overall effect; the tropical fruitiness wins in the end, with the hops adding a light peppery bitterness too, highlighted by an afterglow of gently warming, wodka-like alcohol which nevertheless remains well in place where it belongs. Quite a distinct, fascinatingly herbal interpretation of NEDIPA, but surprisingly well made. Nice one!

Canned 14.05.21. Super hazy orange, slight bit of yellow head that rapidly disappears. Smells tart, tons of mango. Smooth body, pretty chunky, with some sharp carb. Tastes lightly sour, some sweetness but surprising dry. Loads of mango, some other fruit.

Some hops for variation, super fresh, kegged 1 day before? And you can tell, still tastes a bit green to be honest. Smooth body, tropical hops, something dank and a bit vegetal. Not as intense or pronounced as the predecessors.
