First beers at the liquor store!
In January 2025, I suddenly had 30 cases of beer in the garage. My dream of brewing beer commercially had come true. But who would buy it? Would there be any interest, and what price should I ask?
Led by Vos Sr., we visited several restaurants and the liquor store in his village of Maarn. We delivered the beers for tasting, hoping for a positive response. And we succeeded! The owner of liquor store "de Brouwer," named Danny, was immediately enthusiastic and eager to promote local beer.
About a year later, there are already five different versions on the shelves, and it's gaining an increasingly prominent place in his shop. Talking to these passionate entrepreneurs has changed me. Previously, I would have been somewhat shy and insecure about my own creation, but by talking to like-minded people, I almost always came home with more energy and ideas!
Of course, it makes me proud that others liked my beers, but I enjoyed exploring a new world and slowly expanding the shelf together with Danny even more.
