I just bought these 2 beers from a local liquor store in Egmond (NL). Both are probably aliases, but I need a bit more info before I add them and have them aliased. The first is a German Hefeweizen, barcode 8717775902188, brewed in DE 56371 Nassau, Germany. Can’t find a brewery there though.
The second is probably made at van Steenberge, it’s a porter at 6%, barcode 8717775904595. Label doesn’t mention the brewery, although all other labels of the Egmond range do mention van Steenberge. No other info on the labels though.

Pics?

Why need pics? They’re called Egmond Weisse and Egmond Porter. Apart from some generic picture of a dune there’s nothing else on the label except what I described.

Bizarre that they would say it’s brewed in Nassau (and that number)... nothing there.

Except for these guys http://www.nassauer-loewen.de/ who do call themselves a brewery in the official name, and have links with Maisel.

Very, very circumstantial, but the closest I can get at this hour and with these resources, unless I’m missing something really obvious.

That was the only one I could find as well, but they don’t seem to be an actual brewery, hence my confusion.

I’m pretty sure it’s a van Steenberge too, just need some confirmation. The Weisse is still quite shady though.

Ya know, that’s exactly what I was thinking while reading that, that you probably know them. :D

Do you have a picture of the "German" Weissbier brewed in Nassau? The barcode only points to a dutch trade company (Multi Cadeau B.V.), so from the shape of the label we can see of my guess in the Germany-forum (Karlsberg-group) might be right - but that’s only a guess :)

I do, but can’t post it now. I bought it at a Bottle shop in Egmond who sells ’their own’ beers under the name of Egmond’s ...(enter style). The label almost looks like it has been printed on a home printer, rectangle shape, no neck or back label. I’ll post one tomorrow. Thanks for the search.
