Brouwerij Jot

Brouwerij Jot is a Dutch brewery brand marketed under the name Jot bier, with the slogan "Drink met (je) mate(n)!" (roughly, "Drink with your mates!"). The brewery's public identity is built around a compact but varied range of craft-style beers rather than a large industrial portfolio. According to its official website, its core beer is a Tripel called Mennekes, which is presented as the established flagship of the house. Around this Tripel, Brouwerij Jot has expanded with two newer releases: a full, flavourful Quadrupel named Heerkes and a fresh, fruity NEIPA named Herman. The brewery also announced that it would bring a new Blond beer, referred to as BZN, to market in the spring. The naming style of the beers is informal and personal, using short Dutch-sounding names such as Mennekes, Heerkes and Herman, which fits the brand's friendly, social-drinking positioning. The website presents the beers as the central focus, with a dedicated section for the different beers and a separate overview of points of sale, indicating that Brouwerij Jot sells through third-party outlets rather than only through its own taproom or webshop. The brand therefore appears to operate as a small or independent Dutch brewery whose beers are distributed to selected retail or hospitality locations in the Netherlands. Brouwerij Jot is listed in Wikidata as a brewery, confirming its classification as a beer producer rather than a bar, retailer or other type of business. The available evidence does not specify the founding year, the founders, the exact location or the ownership structure of the brewery. What is clear from the official site is that the brewery is active, that it continues to release new beers, and that its range spans traditional Belgian-inspired styles such as Tripel and Quadrupel alongside modern craft styles such as NEIPA. This combination positions Brouwerij Jot in the Dutch craft beer scene, where small breweries often mix classic abbey-style beers with contemporary hop-forward styles. Because the brand is small and locally focused, detailed corporate information is limited. The dossier therefore concentrates on what the brewery itself communicates: its beer names, its styles, its slogan and its sales through external points of sale. Further details such as production volume, brewing location, founding date and ownership would require additional sources beyond the official homepage and the Wikidata entry.

The available evidence does not provide a founding date or a detailed corporate history for Brouwerij Jot. What can be established is that the brewery operates in the Netherlands and presents itself publicly under the name Jot bier. Its official website describes a beer range that has grown over time: the Tripel Mennekes is described as an existing beer, while the Quadrupel Heerkes and the NEIPA Herman are described as recently introduced additions. The brewery also states that it planned to launch a new Blond beer, BZN, in the spring. This pattern suggests an active small brewery that continues to expand its portfolio rather than a long-established industrial producer. The brand's slogan, "Drink met (je) mate(n)!" ("Drink with your mates!"), and the informal names of its beers point to a social, approachable craft beer identity. The website also includes a points-of-sale section, indicating distribution through third-party outlets. No further verified historical milestones, ownership changes or expansions are available in the supplied evidence.
