THE TASTE OF TRADITION


dutch brewing heritage since 1538
In the Middle Ages, Breda was an important hub for Dutch brewing. Breda Beer began at the ‘3 Hoefijzers’ (3 Horseshoes) brewery, founded in 1538 and run by the Smits van Waesberghe family for six generations. Today, using the original recipe and proudly bearing the three horseshoes insignia, Breda Beer is enjoyed for its craftsmanship and heritage across the world.

PURE CRAFTSMANSHIP

MALTING
Everything begins with high quality barley. In a process called malting, we warm it up and add moisture which encourages the grains to sprout. This germination process is halted in a drying kiln where the malted barley is heated to around 80°C. Now it’s ready for the next step.
brewing
We grind up the malted barley and mix it with water to form ‘wort’. When heated, this converts the starch into sugars. The sprouting from the first stage helps release more starch. Now hops are added for flavour before the liquid is filtered, cooled and oxygenated.


fermentation
Next, we pump the cooled wort into stainless steel fermentation tanks and add yeast. Fermentation takes about a week as the yeast converts the malt sugars into alcohol and carbon dioxide (CO2). Once fermentation is finished, we have what’s known as ‘green’ beer.
filtration
The final step is to filter the beer, removing any remaining yeast or sediment. The beer now takes on its familiar bright and clear hue. We store the filtered beer in pressurised tanks before it is bottled ready for shipping to Breda Beer fans all around the world.
