Age verification
We ask for your date of birth when you visit the website. If in doubt, we may ask for valid ID and refuse or cancel an order. Orders are only delivered to people aged 18 or over.
Alcohol is particularly harmful for young people: the brain keeps developing until around age 24, and drinking early increases the risk of alcohol problems later in life.
The Dutch Health Council's advice
The advice of the Dutch Health Council (Gezondheidsraad) is: don't drink alcohol, or at least no more than one glass a day. Never drink when driving, at work, during sports, with medication, or when pregnant, trying to conceive or breastfeeding.
Strong beers, enjoyed with attention
Many beers in our collection are barrel aged stouts and barleywines of 10 to 15% ABV or more. One bottle can contain as much alcohol as three to five standard drinks. Share a bottle, pour small glasses, drink water in between and take your time.
