Grutte Pier Brouwerij is a craft brewery based in Bartlehiem, in the heart of the Frisian province of the Netherlands. Founded in 2014, the brewery takes its name from the legendary Frisian freedom fighter and folk hero Grutte Pier, who around 1517 defended Friesland against the Saxons. This historical inspiration runs deep through the brewery's identity, connecting its beers to the proud and independent spirit of Frisian culture. The brewery focuses on authentic Frisian specialty beers, offering a steadily growing portfolio of characterful craft brews. Among its known offerings are an IPA and a Honey Blonde, two styles that reflect both hop-forward brewing and more approachable, malt-driven profiles. The brewery has built a reputation for character and craftsmanship, earning a rating of 3.75 out of 5 on Untappd. In addition to beer, Grutte Pier also produces an artisanal limoncello under the name Grutte Pier Brouwerij & Stokerij. Visitors can experience the beers firsthand at the brewery's own tasting room in Bartlehiem, Friesland. The taproom offers a genuine local experience rooted in Frisian tradition. Grutte Pier regularly participates in beer festivals and collaborative events, making it a recognisable name in the Dutch craft beer scene.
