Description
Artisanally brewed in Amsterdam since 2011.

Combining influences from the rich European beer culture with a non-conformist attitude.

From a family heritage of Swedish farm brewers and trained by the masters of ale and porter in England, we ended up in the Netherlands to create our own microcosm in the world of beer.

Inspired by the lesser known sides of European brewing culture and devoted to uncommon artisanal techniques, Butcher's Tears makes distinctive beers that progress beyond fashion and convention.

Tap @ Utrechts Lentebier. Bit cloudy orange golden color, short frothy head. Served pretty cold, but still I could get quite some fruity hops and biscuity malts. Quite bitter taste, again the biscuity malt. Almost like a decent malty IPA. Like!
