About

Hillegomse Bevrijdingsbier 1945-2020 is a commemorative beer from Brouwerij Klein Duimpje, a passionate craft brewery in the Bollenstreek region. This wheat beer at 7% alcohol celebrates 75 years of liberation and Hillegom's heritage. As a weizen, it delivers the classic character of the German style: fruity and spicy aromas with notes of banana and white pepper, balanced by soft malt backbone. Fermentation with weizen-specific yeast gives the beer its full, silky texture. Klein Duimpje, founded in 1994 by brewmaster Erik Bouman, has established itself since the 1990s as a trusted name in Dutch beer culture. This beer exemplifies their craftsmanship and local roots.
