Description
Our mission is pretty much monomaniacal: to brew f*cking good beer. We call it craft-y beer because the owl's got a sharp, uncompromised tongue and a penchant for mischief.

On a typical day we toy with the familiar – unfiltered lager, silky hefeweizen and puckery American IPA, anyone? – but at night we explore the crafty beer extremes from our medieval watering hole Haarlem (That's Haarlem with two 'a's, the Dutch one, and the namesake of New York's single-'a'ed Harlem).

Really truly, our idea of fun is abusing the rauchbeer-Scotch ale-sour beer-oak-aged Imperial Stout-Barley wine clichés. The first rule of owl school: when using hops think in wheelbarrows and not buckets.

So enjoy us, drink us and by all means hop fans abuse us right back – ideally via our social media channels where we announce our very active new creations.

Acquired by Swinkels Family Brewers in 2021.

Can on 17th December 2025 from the Uiltje Bar, Haarlem. Pours a hazy copper with shallow yet lasting off-white foam and scant lacing. Malty aroma with cabbage and cheese notes. Zesty peel in-mouth with hints of cooked vegetables on a solid malt. A zesty, malty finish. Full body and a remarkably smooth mouthfeel. Exquisite.

Donkerbruin bier met schuim. Smak is bitterzoet met iets van donkere chocolade, wat karamel en een vleug framboos die het een fris fruitige smaak geeft.

Can shared by Joen. So sad this wasn't named "Oehoe let the dogs out", missed chance Uiltje!! Yellow to light orange color, average sized white head. Aroma and flavor are malts, citrusy, something odd in the fruitiness. Hmm okay. Drinkable.

Combatiendo los más tempraneros ramalazos de frío con la primera imperial stout de la temporada, pretendiendo empezar con algo ligero y desenfadado dentro del estilo. Y recordando ademas lo mucho que se disfruta una olfateaba y un leve sorbo en una schnifter...
Color caoba oscuro, prácticamente negro, completamente opaca, espuma color canela cremosa de media retención. En nariz me destaca una deliciosa nota de frambuesa, además de cacao, malta tostada y galletas de avena. En boca es seca y ligeramente licorosa, dulzor y acidez equilibradas preceden a un final ligeramente ahumado y amargo, notas de cacao, frambuesa y café expreso. Disfrutable, alegre y bastante divertida, que rica.

(Draft at Beer Temple, Amsterdam, 17 Aug 2025) Black colour with brief, beige head. Malty, roasted nose with notes of liquorice, dark chocolate, oak wood and bourbon. Malty, roasted taste with chocolate, liquorice, oak wood, bourbon, vanilla, caramel, anise and a mild herbal bitterness in a warming finish. Full body, sweet. Rich, powerful and warming. Hardly shy, but fairly well balanced for its strength. Very nice.

330ml can. Pours a hazy yellow gold with a small, foamy, short lived, white head that laces. Mild aroma of wheat malt, Belgian yeast, coriander and floral hops. Sweet flavour of bready wheat malt, orange peel, white pepper, Belgian yeast, coriander and floral hops in a dry, mild bitter finish. Light to medium body with an oily texture and soft carbonation. Refreshing.

Day 1 of the Fin curated advent calendar for Loz consumed at home Monday 1st December 2025 listening to ByteFM and cooking Gnocchi, Cherry Tomato and Feta bake. Pours hazy mid gold, very lively on the pour, really busy however the white head soon retreated after pouring. Very good mouthfeel, clean, brisk, a little buzzy. Grassy hoppiness, a little clean vanilla, citrus. This is a solid Brut IPA. Score 7.0

Heel actief troebel geelbruin bier met weinig schuim. Smaak is bitter zoet en hoppig met wat hars, citrus, gras en een beetje sinaasappel.
