The knife (´bierafschuimer´ in Dutch) is kept in a little bucket with water. When you scrape the top it leaves a thin layer of water on top which is supposed to seal in the foam and make the head last longer. And the head should be two fingers thick.
@@paulvanwens2588 But the flavour doesn't just evaporate.. And even if it did, foam wouldn't protect it from doing so. I am fairly certain it's just a thing you've been told over and over again and now you believe it. But it's actually a trick to sell you less beer for the same price.
According to the National Weather Service those burps have caused a shift in the Gulf stream and who knows what effect that will have on weather. Once again your snobbery knows no bounds. Thanks for reviewing a really good beer.
Brother, I am Dutch a it's I nice that y'all have Grolsch in the state. The way you pronounce it is close to perfect😊 the popping of the bottle makes it a good beer. The bottles are wesome, just to refill them with water when I am on a hike.
I would love to see you review Edmund Fitzgerald porter if you haven’t already. I have heard really great things about it. Trying to find it in my area.
It's a good porter, but on the lighter side. Personally, I think it's overrated. Deschutes Black Butte Porter is more flavorful without being heavy. Or if you want something a little hoppier then go for Founders Porter.
Afaik Moretti is Heineken and bottled in the Wylre brewery in (Dutch) Limburg, at least for some northern markets. Usually Grolsch and Brand are considered the slightly more bitter ones among the Dutch standard pilsners. Price in NL about Eur 19-20 for a crate of either 16 45cl or 24 30cl bottles, but Eur 15 (-25%, max discount by law) when on sale. (but add another Eur +/- 4 deposit for crate and bottles)
I love the bottle, but I’ve never really liked this beer. Not today I went out for a traditional German schnitzel with red cabbage, potatoes wonderful German meal well done. The restaurant happened to have only one thing on tap. The restaurant happened to have only one thing on tap Radeberger Pilsner. It was amazing. I loved it please review this. I would love to hear your opinion. If anything I think it’s a little bit better than what seems to be the highest rated beer you’ve ever given. Which is Pilsner Uniquer or how ever you spell it. I’d really love to hear what you think of Radeberger Pilsner.
i am here because of the fact that its my regions beer over here in the netherlands we still use the orginal bottles with the green letters and way more info on it also its easier to open if u hold the bottle infront of u with both arms and push the tabs with ur dumbs that way u can also get a way louder plopping sound out of it.
They are prone to exploding if your beer fridge is fairly cold, not quite frozen but frosty. Found that out the hard way and my other glass bottles were fine.
It's funny, buying this type of flip-top bottle brand new (i.e. empty) from a homebrew store is usually more expensive (at least where i am) than buying the same amount of these Grolsch bottles (comes with beer!).
A few things ... First of all, if you get the fliptop bottle (Beugelfles) you're supposed to drink from the bottle, closing it after each swig. This is how (construction) workers (in the old days) stayed hydrated during the day. The specific taste comes from the hop, the brewers don't hold back on that. Grolsch is one of the few beers that don't get cooked before beeing bottled.
Being from the Netherlands , I love Grolsch and moreso the bottle . I used to prank people with a : I can open this bottle with just my index finger , chopping the stopper off , and then challenging people to do the same ( and basicaly break their finger in the attempt ) Trick is to basicaly make a fist , point your index finger forward and hitting the hinge thingy with the inside of your middle finger knuckle , so its not actual your index finger that opens the bottle ( which you cant do ) but your middle finger , but its a movement too fast for people to spot , Hours of fun and free beer if you make it a bet ! Disclaimer : this was 30 years ago , Im not sure the new bottles will work the same .
The big beer manufacturers routinely put too much gas in their beer. Kegs especially. I'm not surprised that hurt. There's way too much gas in that stuff. Pour it straight down a 20-ounce glass to get rid of the gas. They scrape the glass there because there's way too much gas in that part of the tapping. When the gas settles to the proper pressure it's fine.
Maybe beer and wine companies here in the United States can start making alcoholic beverages with these swing tops for safety reasons as there are reports of ruffies being dropped in drinks at bars. I say just give the drink to the customer and have him or her open it. It saves the bartender time pouring and the customer can secure his or her drink by putting the stopper back on when not drinking. Also less glasses used so less to clean the bottle can go in the trash or the customer can keep it
They sell a lot of 33cl bottles too, with regular caps, but they have never been able to get away from this beugelfles. At one time the thought was that there are just a lot of people who don't want 45cl of beer at one sitting, just too big, and besides, those caps are a fussy sort of thing that are prone to accidents everywhere from the factory to your fridge. They were going to get rid of them, but people wouldn't have it. They used to be better made, too. I think the bottle is better than the beer.
I don't like the taste of beer. I bought a 4 pack of these yesterday for the bottles for kombucha brewing. It cost me $20 for the case. I'm thinking my family and friends will help me by drinking a bottle each for me so I can wash and reuse them. Perhaps I will take a sip and see if I still dislike beer lol. Who knows, maybe my tastes have changed in my older age...
I just had Grolsch tonight after a long time $10 for the equivalent of just over 5 beers is not too bad considering the cost of microbrew beers here in the US. The bottle can be reused for every and anything . Just sanitize first
As a person restocking this beer; I hate it. The case is overtly big, and doesn't stack well with other cases. Plus the case is kinda heavy, but that part isn't a big deal; it's more the box-size. Never tried this beer, I find pilsners kind of boring to drink. Although, I might give it a shot after this video.
Yes, the odd shape and size of the bottle would be a stocking nightmare! If you drink a 4 pack, you'll have less to stock. Thanks for being a NEW subscriber - I'll try not to let you down, CHEERS!
This is my favourite beer, UNTIL they started producing it domestically and it literally turned into water. I only buy the 1.5L or the 355ml bottles because its imported from Holland. Delicious
My favorite beer for 15 years now but in Ontario I just bought a 24 of cans, 473ml, they are 500ml and the price went up to $60. It also tastes different like some bull crap canadian domestic piss water. The pop tops might still be actually imported. Oh well save money and drink less or buy real imports. Or maybe screw them all and make my own. Lol. Edit just looked at my emptys. The 500ml can it says the Netherlands. The 473ml can says Saint John New Brunswick. I'm going to have to go get the last of the 500ml cases, of cans, on the shelves tomorrow. Edit: Sleemans took it over. It's gross now. I hope they fail. Lol
Grolsch is a much better beer than Heineken. I hope you ever tied Hertog Jan. Too bad you poured the glass wrong,, you should pour it like a European beer with foam. Grolsch was indeed an independent Dutch brand for a very long time but a Japanese beer brand bought it They were a fan of Grolsch
come from the Netherlands and grolsch is a better lager, but not a special beer. there are smaller breweries with much better lagers or other beers, such as stouts, ales, ipas, barlewine, porters, etc.
The same exact thing happened to me when I tried it, LOVED the first bottle, and the 2nd bottle a day later was a big "no way" for me. I'll keep Heineken as my fav. NL beer...
as dutch person heinken is most sold...not most popular. For dutch beer Grolsch, La trappe , hertog Jan are all better. In the south we call Heineken even sloot water ( ditch water). Export ones from heineken are decent or good. But tab or festival beer stay away from heineken...its taste watery and metallic. Hell amstel, bavaria are even better
That is the only beer that I drink Warsteiner in carlsberg is really good as well German purity laws Never been hung over And I get feeling pretty good off of 4
Man........THAT BEER IS WORTH EVERY SIP OR CHUG!..........such a good beer no matter the occasion
Amen
The knife (´bierafschuimer´ in Dutch) is kept in a little bucket with water. When you scrape the top it leaves a thin layer of water on top which is supposed to seal in the foam and make the head last longer. And the head should be two fingers thick.
Ooof, two fingers is such a crime for such a beer. Wayy too much.
@@BiIboSwaggins The foam locks in the flavour, it's not just there for show.
@@paulvanwens2588 But the flavour doesn't just evaporate.. And even if it did, foam wouldn't protect it from doing so.
I am fairly certain it's just a thing you've been told over and over again and now you believe it. But it's actually a trick to sell you less beer for the same price.
I personally love Grolsch. Love showing up to parties or get togethers with them, definitely commands attention.
My favorite beer bottle hands down and one of my favorite brews. Good review man, cheers. 🍻
I'm half Dutch and this is my standard beer but you should open it by pushing the metal with both thumbs so you really hear the pop
right on Jordi - you are fully Dutch
According to the National Weather Service those burps have caused a shift in the Gulf stream and who knows what effect that will have on weather. Once again your snobbery knows no bounds. Thanks for reviewing a really good beer.
I've always enjoyed Grolsch.
Awesome to see you here, I love Louisiana beer reviews
@@gingerkidmatt I appreciate your support!

🍻🔥🤘
Back in 2007 I was the party when I showed up with a 6 pack of that 🤘🍻😍😋
Brother, I am Dutch a it's I nice that y'all have Grolsch in the state.
The way you pronounce it is close to perfect😊 the popping of the bottle makes it a good beer.

loved it back in the wild days of 1989, might grab a pack tomorrow for a trip down that road again.
Nice! One of the best reviews so far
Vc tem por aí Carlsgerg?? Tomei muito essa cerveja aqui em Manaus, Brazil.

I just tried it for the first time today and it’s pretty good.
Funny, in the Netherlands we do it the other way around. So we push the thumbs against the tabs!
Grolsch Swing top my FAVORITE!

I’ve been drinking Grolsch for 22 years. I haven’t seen the Grolsch Blonde in many years but it was a good one too, it came in clear bottles.😉
I love the bottle, but I’ve never really liked this beer. Not today I went out for a traditional German schnitzel with red cabbage, potatoes wonderful German meal well done. The restaurant happened to have only one thing on tap. The restaurant happened to have only one thing on tap Radeberger Pilsner.

next dutch pils should be Hertoch Jan much better then Grolsch or Heinenken
I’m putting my second request for Ballantine. Thank you and love your channel.
Been there, drank that! Let me know what you think. Thanks for your view, SUB and support - CHEERS! ruclips.net/video/jxOp1Rp3VF4/видео.html
It's basically a less bitter Heineken which is a good thing to me.
my favorite beer has been for 30 years
I'm surprised it's not bigger in the USA. Cheers!
Everyone I used to enjoy a Grolsch with have now gone away.
i am here because of the fact that its my regions beer
over here in the netherlands we still use the orginal bottles with the green letters and way more info on it
also its easier to open if u hold the bottle infront of u with both arms and push the tabs with ur dumbs that way u can also get a way louder plopping sound out of it.
They are prone to exploding if your beer fridge is fairly cold, not quite frozen but frosty. Found that out the hard way and my other glass bottles were fine.
Anyone remember “Altenmunster” which came in a brown bottle like the Grolsch? I miss that beer.
It's funny, buying this type of flip-top bottle brand new (i.e. empty) from a homebrew store is usually more expensive (at least where i am) than buying the same amount of these Grolsch bottles (comes with beer!).
I’m over in the UK, We used to get the 5% good stuff, They have now lowered it to 4%😢

This beer is delicious
Never tried this but I'm a heineken lover,so I'll give it a go. Congratulations to your Bulldogs, even though they beat my Buckeyes lol.
Similar but better in my opinion. Such a good brew 🍻
Waaaayyyy better then Heineken.. less skunky and funky and smoother
Where I come from they say:
Drink Grolsch and p*ss heineken
LOL! Sounds about right! Thanks for your view, SUB and support - CHEERS!

Im Dutch and if I may, you sould try a Dutch beer called vurige non. Its a rich beer.

You opened it the wrong way. A botle of grolsch has to be opend with a push of a thumb
I just had Grolsch tonight after a long time $10 for the equivalent of just over 5 beers is not too bad considering the cost of microbrew beers here in the US. The bottle can be reused for every and anything . Just sanitize first
They sell it in movie theaters. It's a bit of a tradition to pop the bottle when the movie starts.

Greeeat..... Tony the tiger
I just had one of these last night and by one I mean four.
lol, whos keeping count?
I had one that the bottle was brown with a porsolen top
Grolsch and Hertog Jan my go to beer.
The legendary plop sound
Birra morreti is owned by heineken. This beer definitely reminds me of Peroni,which isn't odd considering that it's owned by Asahi like Grolsch
That's the beer from my home town and my favorite
The old ceramic top made a great holder when your joint was getting down towards the end... some guy told me. 😆😆😆
This is my favourite beer, UNTIL they started producing it domestically and it literally turned into water. I only buy the 1.5L or the 355ml bottles because its imported from Holland. Delicious
Thanks for your views, sub and support - CHEERS!
back in the day when the top was porcelain we used them for, uh, "cigarette' holders! 😂
😂😂😂😂🤘 "like a party gurl"
Been drinking Grolsch for over 20 years, to me nothing comes close except some German brands.
A college go to. Haven’t had in years.
One of my favorites
And if you dont finish and seal that top back its just as fresh the next day...i personally never did it,i buy 4 i drink 4,best Pilsner ever
I’d almost get this just for the flip top bottles.
Drinking a buoy beer company cream ale. Astoria Oregon
can see your american !
serving the beer wrong in the glass
there should be 2 fingers of foam on top
so you need to let it fall harder into the glass
I love beer
Why do you chug beers when you do your tasting?
I agree of the Moretti vibe.
Grolsch is a great beer!
My favorite beer for 15 years now but in Ontario I just bought a 24 of cans, 473ml, they are 500ml and the price went up to $60. It also tastes different like some bull crap canadian domestic piss water. The pop tops might still be actually imported. Oh well save money and drink less or buy real imports.

Another way of opening the Grolsch is to turn the loop away from you, and press with your thumbs (I prefer this method).
Tbh, I have never seen anyone pull before... (And I live in Enschede, so I know my Grolsch :-P)
Grolsch is a much better beer than Heineken.
I hope you ever tied Hertog Jan.
Too bad you poured the glass wrong,, you should pour it like a European beer with foam.
Grolsch was indeed an independent Dutch brand for a very long time but a Japanese beer brand bought it
They were a fan of Grolsch
Love it have some empty porcelain cap bottles
A horse drinks Grolsch and pees Heineken
9 for 4 of them damn wish beer was that cheap round here
will you try old English? hehe good vid.
Little Brother of Heineken 😂we call Heineken not beer we call it sewage water (GROLSCH is the best)
Bail top. Good for you.
come from the Netherlands and grolsch is a better lager, but not a special beer.
there are smaller breweries with much better lagers or other beers, such as stouts, ales, ipas, barlewine, porters, etc.
9,99 ??? are you nuts, in Holland Grolsch Beugel pilsener
4 x 450 ml
4. 95 euro america hahaha 🤣
You poured it wrong. More foam. Tilt your glass when you pour.
The same exact thing happened to me when I tried it, LOVED the first bottle, and the 2nd bottle a day later was a big "no way" for me. I'll keep Heineken as my fav. NL beer...
Green bottle skunk is what you are getting
Dutch champagne
as dutch person heinken is most sold...not most popular.
For dutch beer Grolsch, La trappe , hertog Jan are all better.
In the south we call Heineken even sloot water ( ditch water). Export ones from heineken are decent or good. But tab or festival beer stay away from heineken...its taste watery and metallic.
Hell amstel, bavaria are even better
The bottles cost more than that retail.
I just paid $13
Funny
You opened the beer wrong use your thumb!
great bottle, meh beer.
I hate Grolsch beer. Try Hertog Jan
He’s got the alcoholic shakes bad
Occupational hazard. lol. Thanks for your view, sub and support - CHEERS!
“Grolsch” sounds like a german 😂
Grolsch is slootwater (ditch water) drink Hertog Jan instead, its the best
Beer should never be in green bottles!, The UV rays get into the beer and make it skunky, smells and tastes like weed.
Sorry.
This"pilsner"like a budweiser.
oh that one is not cheap at all
Ruined a perfectly good beer by drinking from a beer glass. In a bottle drink from a bottle.
So, you consider Grolsch to be a cheap beer? You make too much money.
Love it
That is the only beer that I drink
Warsteiner in carlsberg is really good as well
German purity laws
Never been hung over
And I get feeling pretty good off of 4
