Description
We are Oedipus Brewing. Founded by four friends in Amsterdam, we’re always ready to go where our taste buds take us. Oedipus is about fun, energy and doing things differently. We create fantastical beers to reveal to the world that beer is a magical beverage: tasty, exciting and for everyone. Welcome to our universe 🖖🏽

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.

7.5/10
More or less what I was expecting from the description. Plenty of fairly sweet white wine, general tropical fruity flavours, and a slight touch of bretty goat. Refreshing and summery, lightly tart. Not complex, but not bad at all.

Tight foamy white head on an unclear pale golden coloured body. Citrus, chalky & herbal aroma. Medium bodied, foamed on the tongue with a sticky cloying back. Spices, chalky, lemon, orange & coriander tastes. Refreshing.

Meerdere 33cl blikken bij Patronaat, Haarlem, @Cro-Mags. Ruikt wat zwavelig, witte wijn-achtig, druiven, limoen, smaak is fris, citrus, licht zurig, bitter, droog. Lastig om hier een stijl op te plakken. Prima voor bij een concertje in ieder geval.

[33cl bottle from Beer52.] A hazy straw coloured pour with a loose white head; sour mango aroma; fresh acidic fruity taste with a slightly soapy mouthfeel; then a clean dry finish with some citrus zest. A nice refreshing summer beer.

[33cl bottle from Beer52 at 4.5% ABV.] A hazy straw coloured pour with a thin white head; yeasty coriander aroma; quite lively in the mouth with some citrus at first; then banana and clove to finish. A refreshing Witbier.
