Beer brewer companies “Grolsch” and “Brouwersnös” join forces in honor of the Battle of Grolle 2019. Specially for this 7th edition of the Battle they will be brewing a new one-time only special beer. This beer will be available exclusively in the run-up to and during the event. What special beer this will become, is up to the master brewers of both breweries. They will be considering this in the coming months – in cooperation with the organization of the Battle of Grolle.
