Beer Breweries: The Netherlands overtakes Belgium as a brewing heartland

There are now more brewers in the Netherlands than traditional beer country Belgium, RTL news says on Tuesday. Dutch beer website Cambrinus.nl calculates there are 311 official brewers in the Netherlands and, says RTL, there are 263 in Belgium. Cambrinus has been monitoring the domestic beer industry since 1985. ‘Our list does not include private individuals who brew 40 litres in their kitchen because there are an awful lot of them,’ the site’s Jan Ausems told RTL. Both the Netherlands and Belgium have 172 brewers but the Netherlands has 139 ‘beer companies’, which produce beer according to their own recipe via a third party, RTL said. Belgium only has 91 third party brewers. Most beer companies and breweries are in Noord-Holland province, the website says.
