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.

(Bottle) Reddish brown colour with lasting, tan head. Malty, spicy nose with dark bread, caramel, orange peel, treacle toffee, dried figs and a touch of ginger and cardamom. Malty, spicy taste with notes of caramel, dark bread, orange peel, toffee, dried figs, ginger, juniper berries and a mild spicy bitterness in the finish. Medium body, with a touch of sweetness. Really tasty and well balanced, a bit like a milder/lighter version of Anchor's Christmas Ale. Very nice.
