EVERYTHING YOU WANT TO KNOW ABOUT LOWLANDER BEER
WHILE WORKING IN A GIN DISTILLERY IN THE UNITED KINGDOM I FELL IN LOVE WITH THE USE OF BOTANICALS IN DISTILLING AND THE FASCINATING WORLD OF COCKTAILS. HAVING BASICALLY GROWN UP IN BEER IN THE NETHERLANDS I GUESS IT WAS ONLY NATURAL THAT I STARTED WONDERING WHAT WOULD HAPPEN IF YOU WOULD BREW RATHER THAN DISTIL WITH THESE BOTANICALS. I GREW CURIOUS ABOUT WHAT KIND OF CHARACTER THESE HERBS, SPICES AND FRUITS COULD GIVE TO BEER. TO MY SURPRISE I DISCOVERED THAT THE LOWLANDS ACTUALLY HAVE A VERY INTRIGUING HISTORY WHERE IT COMES TO BREWING WITH BOTANICALS. AS DUTCH EXPLORERS TRAVELLED THE GLOBE THEY RETURNED HOME WITH CARGOS BRIMMING WITH PRECIOUS HERBS AND EXOTIC SPICES, WHICH SOON MADE THEIR WAY INTO DUTCH BEER. AND SO THE IDEA FOR LOWLANDER BEER WAS BORN. MY DREAM IS TO EXPAND PEOPLE’S HORIZON WHEN IT COMES TO BEER. AND WITH OUR BOTANICALLY BREWED LOWLANDER BEER I WANT TO PUT THE LOWLANDS BACK ON THE MAP FOR GREAT TASTING BEERS FULL OF BOTH FLAVOUR AND CHARACTER. I INVITE YOU TO FOLLOW OUR JOURNEY, PROOST! FREDERIK – CHIEF BOTANICAL OFFICER We are driven by putting the flavour and intrigue back in to Dutch beer. As a team we take inspiration from the personal journeys we’ve been on. Our diverse backgrounds as brewers, mixologist, distillers and foodies both here and abroad gives us a different perspective on what beer can be. Our mission is to broaden the horizons of beer by brewing with botanicals. Our self-proclaimed “Chief Botanical Officer” loves everything about exotic botanicals, characterful beer and (bedtime) stories about bravery. Our bucket list-less Brand Ambassador Joost cycles faster than he can talk to convince Amsterdam and beyond to stock Lowlander Beer. Annemieke gains fame for what we’re doing. This proud ginger knows beer & food is a match made in heaven. Our straight talking, fast swimming Rotterdammer Joris is our go to man to talk beer in Rotterdam & The Hague. Cerveza? Öl? Beer? 啤酒? With his inexhaustible energy Jasper puts Lowlander Beer on the world map of great tasting beers. Well-travelled, Rotterdam based Stefan fires up our sales team with a suitcase full of botanical experience in the spirits business. Bob won many hearts & minds in his first unofficial days at Horecava. Coming from gourmet food retail he knows how to suit up his skinny trousers. This self-proclaimed future CEO joins the sales crew for 10 months to graduate from Hospitality Management. Mats knows how to start a party. Having grown up in France, Jimmy tries to put the “beau” in botanicals while part-time developing Lowlander beer in Germany. We launched Lowlander Beer in our home market The Netherlands early 2016 and since then our journey has been nothing short of an adventure. We are one of the fastest growing beers in The Netherlands. We have launched our beers in some selected international markets like the UK, Denmark & Finland, and won 3 gold medals & the overall supreme trophy at the International Beer Challenge in London. And that is just the start of our journey. We are always on the look out for ambitious and talented people to be part of our crew. Any questions about working with us, or want to discover more? We are always on the lookout for talented explorers to join our team of Lowlanders. Can’t find an open vacancy but feel you really want to be part of our journey and think you can help us navigate which route is best to take? Then send an email to info@lowlander-beer.com with your CV and a brief summary of why you feel we should invite you to drink a Lowlander together and talk more.
