Texels Bierbrouwerij
Texelse Bierbrouwerij
Texel’s local craft brewery. Its signature Skuumkoppe and other beers sell well across the Netherlands, and tours and tastings are available.
Texels Brewery was founded in 1999 in a former dairy factory near Oudeschild, brewing with barley grown on the island. Its signature dark wheat beer, Skuumkoppe (meaning roughly “white-capped waves”), has won multiple awards and is now one of the best-known craft brands in the Netherlands. The brewery has a tasting room and terrace, and it offers a tour-and-tasting package of about 1 hour, which requires reservation. You can also buy beer and merchandise at the shop. It makes a good gift alongside Texel sheep cheese.
Opening hours
About 11:00–18:00 (tours by reservation)
