Those who know me, know I love De Efteling, a fairy tale theme park nearby. And the park has several exclusive beers!

After the interesting HEMA tompouce beer experiment last year, I got the chance to taste another beer and candy combination: The Kraftbier Vroemmm…
Beer: HEMA Tompouce Ale
So, this was a thing in the Netherlands this year. Our wholesome Dutch store HEMA decided to launch their own beer!
Dutch Beer Challenge 2021
One of the things that can be a part of being an international biersommelier is being asked to be a judge in a beer competition. I was asked again to judge in the Dutch Beer Challenge of 2021 and of course I said yes!
Düsseldorf
I’ve been to Düsseldorf several times and no doubt I will visit the city again in the future. It’s one of my most favorite beer cities!
Discworld Beers
What I also love are thematic food products. Not the pasted on lolly’s, but the Hartenkoeken from the Efteling, the Laafse Lurk, Lebber and Limoen, The Harry Potter candy that was very popular in the nillies and the Discworld ales that were available until two years ago.
Dutch beer challenge 2020
One of the things that can be a part of being an international biersommelier is being asked to be a judge in a beer competition. I was asked to judge in the Dutch Beer Challenge of 2020 and of course I said yes!
American lagers
We managed to get our hands on some beers brewed in America! And that’s something, because they aren’t easy to get around here.
Dortmund
As I visited Burton last year with the new students, I visited Dortmund in 2018 with my own study group. Our assignment was to brew a Dortmunder Export, but none of us ever drank a Dortmunder Export before.
Board Game: Six sided stout
I have a library full of games. At its height it contained almost 500 different ones, these days I brought it back to 225 games. This time it’s time for another print and play game: Six sided Stout
