Beer by Friekens
N.A.P.
Normaal Amsterdams Pils
Pilsner
Alc. 5% Vol. | IBU 35 | EBC 8
Double hopped pilsner, bottom fermented at 12° C
Pilsner as pilsner should taste. Normal pilsner, from Amsterdam! A bit cocky, wears its heart on its sleeve, but cheerful and easy going. Hoppy, fruity and light, a good companion to pleasantly pass time with.
Brewed from Pilsner and Munich malt and double hopped with Northern Brewer in the kettle and Simcoe and Mosaic in the whirlpool. Bottom fermented at 12º C.

American Pale Ale
Pale Ale
Alc. 5,5% Vol. | IBU 40 | EBC 12
Triple hopped blonde Pale Ale with American yeast and hops.
A bold beer that’s not afraid of large gestures. It’s ballsy and brash. Loudly hoppy, screamingly fresh and broadly bitter, a brew that will make American Pale Ale great again.
Triple hopped blonde Pale Ale from Pilsner and Munich malts and American yeast. Hopped in the kettle with Columbus for bitterness, and for aroma with Simcoe and Mosaic in the whirlpool and dry-hop.
It’s great. Really great. Just great. Again.

India Pale Ale
Pale Ale
Alc. 6,6% Vol. | IBU 60 | EBC 15
A proper I.P.A., triple hopped with large quantities of hops.
The elephant in the room: nothing about this crisp, tasty beer is careful or subtle. It’s a proper I.P.A., full bodied and full flavored, heavily hoppy with intensely fresh citrus aromas taking center stage.
Brewed from Pilsner and Munich malt, and hopped with vast amounts of Simcoe, Centennial, Citra and Amarillo. This certainly isn’t beer for the faint of heart.

Philosopher’s Ale
Real Ale
Alc. 4.8% Vol. | IBU 30 | EBC 30
Real Ale from a complex mix of malt, wheat, barley and corn. Fermented with English Ale-yeast.
A heady brew for thinking people: dark, but clear of character, full-bodied but with a nimble aftertaste, malt forward but light-footed. Chestnut coloured, with tones of blackberry, dark fruit, and a slight hint of coffee, but fresh and hoppy nonetheless.
Real Ale of a complex mix of malt, wheat, roasted barley, and corn. Quadruple hopped with Brewer’s Gold and Northern Brewer during mashing and twice in the kettle, and again in the whirlpool with Mosaic. Fermented with English yeast.

The Bright Side
Session Ale
Alc. 4,4% Vol. | IBU 45 | EBC 8
A light blonde triple hopped Session Ale with a sunny character.
A gay, light hearted, straw blonde ale for those who see stuff from the sunny side.
Brewed of Pilsner, Pale Ale, and Cara malts, hopped with Columbus, Bramling Cross, and Fuggles, and dry-hopped with Hallertau Blanc. This results in hints of passion fruit, citrus, pineapple, grape, and lemongrass.
A light summer beer that happily wags its tail, but is impressively muscular nonetheless.

Bass Activated Saison
Saison
Alc. 6,5% Vol.
Saison from malt and spelt, activated with dramatic drums and bellowing basstones.
This Saison is ‘bass-activated’: by way of low frequency sound waves from Friekens’ own sound system the yeast has been kept in suspension for the first 72 hours in the tank. This process ensures a prolonged and more thorough fermentation.
Brewed from Pilsner malt and spelt, hopped with Brewers Gold, East Kent Goldings and Hallertau Blanc, enriched with Curaçao orange peel and fermented with Belle Saison yeast.
A classic Saison-‘nose’, refreshing, pleasant citrus tones and a dry finish make this an especially tasty Saison.

TUIN
Garden Ale
Real Ale
Alc. 5,6% Vol. | IBU 40 | EBC 20
After a Sumptuous Summer, but before a Wicked Winter, the Fabulous Fall arrives. This autumn beer celebrates the rich harvest time. Spicy, copper colored with an orange haze, subtle smokiness. Hopped with real hop flowers, a true ’Garden Ale’! Friekens Tuin is brewed with oak smoked malt, roasted barley, pilsner malt, oat flakes and wheat. […]

Stout
Stout
Alc. 5.6% vol.
Dark brown with hints of coffee, chocolate and red fruit, and a subtle hint of smoke.
Lief is Stout. Good but naughty, virtuous yet troublesome, profound, mischievous still. Sweet and bitter. Coffee, chocolate, red fruit. With a slight suspicion of smoke, and where there’s smoke, there’s fire!
Ingrediënts: water, Pale Ale and Cara malt, oat and wheat flakes, roasted barley. Hops: Northern brewer, Fuggle, oak smoked Cascade from our own garden.
