who are we?
Nerds for food, wine and of course suds; all for the love of drink culture. we want to create a fun space where things move a little slower: life needs a pause button sometimes, and folks can find that here. there is craft in making eber and there is craft in serving it just right - the latter is where we come in. the higher the foam the closer to god. we have a constant desire to be The Best at what we do. we often ask ourselves, “how do societal pressures an different cultures shape the way we consume beer?”, then we explore that rabbit hole and see where it goes (maybe we’ll get to the centre of the earth one day?).

extensive knowledge of The Office.

communication is your actual middle name
community/team builder - you watch the Olympics every 4 years, not because you’re totally into shotput, but because you’re proud of everyone giving it their all
teamwork is your family name - derives from the Dutch word for “I’m very good at working with others and I like that”
red flags*
your go-to is “I”, instead of “we” when talking about team accomplishments
you already think you know it all
you identify with Stanley Hudson a little too much
you don’t like The Beatles. or dogs.
you drank your first kellerbier and NEVER thought to yourself, “Wait, what is a kellerbier?” - which then led you down a wiki-hole where you learned everything about french-bridge-design, immediately post-rev.
