Since mid 2019 has Heineken a minority interest in the brewery. On June 21, 2023, it was announced that Heineken had acquired all shares of the brewery and thus became full owner of the brewery. The takeover coincides with the move of Oedipus.
The brewery and taproom at Gedempt Hamerkanaal 85 were closed on April 14, 2024. The brewery and taproom were moved to Schaafstraat 19, 300 meters further, where the Oedipus Craft Space will open in the early summer of 2024.

Bottle from Reading BF 2014 and drunk at home. Hazy pale gold lasting thick white head. Lovely hoppy aroma, a little soap maybe but the hop is light citrus and good. Perfumed soap in the mouth with a little pepperyness. Soap dies down a little to leave a light citrus hopped beer. Some bitterness on the finish. Could do without the soap to be honest. Reminds me of something light and hoppy from Belgium. OK.

Hazy amber beer, good fluffy white head. Palate is airy and minerally crisp. Light malt, whisper of cream. Mild pithy orange and grapefruit. Finishes light and dry with a mild bitter linger and a touch of lemon. Itโs a bit hollow and slightly tired tasting but overall okay.
