premium Lager
A clear, golden lager with a smooth, creamy head and refreshing feel, ideal for quenching your thirst

premium Strong
A longer and more complex fermentation process creates a naturally brewed 8,5% beer

Extra Smooth
A mid-strength, pure and effervescent looking lager with a light body, fruity aroma plus hints of citrus

New look,

To remind people of Royal Dutch’s rich heritage, we have updated the branding. The logo is more elegant, emphasising the year of origin. Gold coins and light colours add to the quality feel while the brand story and brew master’s signature showcase our craftsmanship. But something definitely hasn’t changed: our recipe. It’s still the authentic Royal Dutch you trust. Hope you like our new designs.

A story of craftsmanship
Crafting a Royal Dutch beer takes time, effort and skill. Meticulously selected ingredients
are lovingly combined in a process that has barely changed for 200 years.

malting
Everything begins with high quality barley. In a process called malting, we warm it up and add moisture which encourages the grains to sprout. This germination process is halted in a drying kiln where the malted barley is heated to around 80°C. Now it’s ready for the next step.

brewing
We grind up the malted barley and mix it with water to form ‘wort’. When heated, this converts the starch into sugars. The sprouting from the first stage helps release more starch. Now hops are added for flavour before the liquid is filtered, cooled and oxygenated.

fermentation
Next, we pump the cooled wort into stainless steel fermentation tanks and add yeast. Fermentation takes about a week as the yeast converts the malt sugars into alcohol and carbon dioxide (CO2). Once fermentation is finished, we have what’s known as ‘green’ beer.

Filtration
The final step is to filter the beer, removing any remaining yeast or sediment. The beer now takes on its familiar bright and clear hue. We store the filtered beer in pressurised tanks before it is bottled ready for shipping to Royal Dutch fans all around the world.
