About us

Family Owned

What started as a family business of four brothers, now runs like a well oiled machine. We’re passionate about good beers and innovation, always eager to learn and improve. Seeking to understand quality and brew beers that make people smile.

“Beer Engineers at heart, brewers by choice”

beer + engineers = Moersleutel

We understand that the key to great beer lies in the brewing process. That’s why we use a state-of-the-art, semi-automated brewing system that controls every aspect of the process, from temperature to ingredient additions. This ensures that each batch of beer is consistent in flavor and quality, so you can enjoy the same great taste every time you open a can or bottle.

About our brewery

How it started

Alkmaar, NL 2016

Four Dutch brothers, fresh out of technical studies, aimed to prove to be better at anything to their dad, especially in brewing. After a failed first brewing attempt with something the Dutch call ‘slootwater,’ they persisted. Experimenting with various styles and ingredients. Their dedication led to the creation of the very first Moersleutel Barrel Blend, an Imperial Stout that marked the beginning of their journey. Eager to enhance their creations, the brothers continued refining their beers for even greater taste. Eventually growing into what Moersleutel Craft Brewery embodies today.

PS: Mom and dad are still happily working in the brewery too! And brothers Max and Tom now run an engineering company called Zomerdijk Engineering that builds machines for breweries.
