Brouwerij Oudaen is a craft brewery tucked away in the vaulted cellars of Stadskasteel Oudaen, a medieval city castle whose history stretches back to 1296. Located on the iconic Oudegracht canal in the heart of Utrecht, the brewery occupies one of the most historically remarkable brewing sites in the Netherlands. Beer is brewed daily in the tower house cellar, directly along the banks of the canal, blending centuries of history with hands-on craft brewing. The brewery operates as part of a grand café and restaurant, offering guests the unique experience of enjoying freshly brewed beers in a living piece of medieval architecture. The beers are brewed in-house and named in connection with the castle and its surroundings, giving each pour a strong sense of place. Brewing beneath the thick stone walls of a 13th-century city castle adds a distinctive character to the entire Oudaen experience. Brouwerij Oudaen is widely regarded as one of Utrecht's most iconic brewing destinations. Visitors can join brewery tours and explore both the history of the building and the craft behind its beers. The combination of a working brewery, a lively grand café, and a medieval setting makes Stadskasteel Oudaen a must-visit for beer lovers exploring Utrecht.
