Even though the craft beer movement has really shaken up the beer world, some things have remained almost the same: Germans still prefer to drink Pilsner and it is still almost exclusively men behind the kettle. A small group of young, motivated female brewers want to change this situation and enrich the beer scene with female charm and excellent beer. The group of these brewers includes Almut Zinn from Emma - Biere ohne Bart , the ladies from Holla the Beer Fairy and, more recently, the two sisters Tessel and Do from Amsterdam.
From hobby to profession in no time
Before the two powerful women were heads of their own business, they brewed at home in their own four walls. The beer-loving Dutch women equipped themselves with small brewing equipment for €200 and learned how to brew from scratch. Your output was initially 30 liters and, depending on your success, you drank it yourself or passed it on to friends and family. A liter or two certainly went down the drain, but Tessel and Do didn't let even minor failures discourage them. Over time, their beers got better and better and the two learned the tricks and tricks of the brewing process. Their first big appearance was in 2015, when the Amsterdam pub de Parel made their taps available to the ladies. The hobby brewers were well received by the beer-thirsty crowd and then decided to swap their own kitchen for a real brewing system. The Noord Hollandse Bierbrouwerij made its sacred halls available to the two and the first commercially brewed beer was created. After that everything happened very quickly: Tessel and Do quit their jobs, thought of a good name and got to work. Gebrouwen door Vrouwen was born and brewing on a large scale could begin!
From Amsterdam to the world
The beer, produced using the cuckoo brewing process, sold like hot cakes and took the Netherlands by storm. Soon the rush for the beers brewed by women could no longer be handled by two people and Tessel and Do got help. The company grew and word of their beers got around: the brewers' reputation spread as far away as China and they started a collaboration with the Reberg brewery based there. The nimble Dutch women thrilled expats and Chinese alike and their craft beer was also popular on the European beer market. In 2018, the women cracked the 1 million mark and celebrated their success by making a dream come true. Tassel, Do and their now several-member team opened the doors to their own bar in 2019.
