Overview

X-brewing is a Dutch craft brewery that opened in 2018. The brewery positions itself around beers that deliberately seek out and cross stylistic boundaries, rather than aiming for conventional balance or broad appeal. Its own description states that it brews "over the top and out of balance," using honest ingredients and without adding flavorings or colorants. The tagline "More flavor. Beers with an X." captures this identity. The brewery's portfolio is dominated by heavily flavored and unconventional styles, including pastry stouts, imperial stouts, pastry sour ales, New England IPAs, West Coast IPAs, and spicy saisons. Examples from its current and previous line-ups include A Hazy Shade of Summer (Imperial Session NEIPA), Cherry Love (Cherry and Almond Pastry Stout), Coco Chaos (Coconut and Vanilla Pastry Stout), Duskforge (Imperial Bakery Spice Pastry Stout), Fruity Madness (West Coast IPA), Indo Gone Wild (Spicy Saison), Intergalactic Apple Pie (Apple Pie Pastry Sour Ale), Malto Maple Madness (Imperial Maple Stout), Shadow Fuel (Imperial Stout), Soulfly (American IPA), and Whoop The Orange Scoop (New England IPA). Previous beers have included A Wacked Up Nut Job (Imperial Peanutbutter Banana Pastry Stout), Black and Blue (Stout-Imperial / Double Pastry), Canadian BBQ (Smoked Maple Pancake Ale), Freaky Frosty (Ice Distilled Stout), Hot Chocolate (Spicy Choco Oatmeal Stout), I Love the Smell of Coffee In The Morning (Imperial Coffee Stout), and Pogue Mahone (Irish Stout). X-brewing operates in the Netherlands and sells its beers under its own brand. The company is not known to be publicly listed, and no parent company or owner is identified in the available evidence. Its focus remains on small-batch, high-impact craft beers that emphasize flavor intensity and experimentation over traditional style conformity.
