An India Pale Ale (5.5% Alc./Vol.), brewed from four malt varieties, with a beautiful hop-grapefruit bitterness that caresses the taste buds in the finish. Exclusively available at Strandpaviljoen Kaap Noord on Texel. Pure, uninterrupted enjoyment!

Kasté Bier

Kasté Bier Refreshing copper-colored Weizen beer – A unique house beer from Gastropub Mans

Kasté Bier is a refreshing, copper-colored Weizen beer with 5.5% Alc./Vol., specially brewed for Gastropub Mans at the Steenenplaats, next to and beneath the large chestnut tree.

At the Steenenplaats, you can enjoy this special house beer. Its full-bodied flavor comes from the use of lightly roasted barley malt, but Kasté is above all a true thirst-quencher thanks to the refreshing taste of wheat malt.

Exclusively available on tap at Gastropub Mans.

Tesselaar Skarrelaar

Tesselaar Skarrelaar A fresh blonde house beer from De Krim Holiday Parks

Tesselaar Skarrelaar Blond is a unique house beer of De Krim Holiday Parks. The Tesselaar Family Brewery has brewed a delicious top-fermented blonde beer for the ultimate Texel holiday feeling. With barley malt and a touch of wheat malt, this is a fresh blonde beer with 5% Alc./Vol. Various hop varieties give this beer a soft, refreshing bitterness in the finish.

Tesselaar Skarrelaar gets its name from the carefree wandering around the island. In the Texel dialect, "Skarrelen" or "Strûnen" means to explore and roam. And what could be better than settling down after a long (beach) walk and quenching your thirst with a Skarrelaar?

Tesselaar Eigenweizen

Tesselaar Eigen IJsweis A heartwarming winter beer from Jumbo Texel

Specially brewed for Jumbo on Texel: a distinctive winter beer with 7% Alc./Vol. By using different types of roasted barley and wheat malts, this amber-colored winter beer is just a little different from the ‘usual.’ Full-bodied and warming in flavor, with notes of caramel and orange.

Tesselaar Eigen IJsweis

Tesselaar Eigenweizen A distinctive Weizen beer

Specially brewed for Jumbo on Texel: a unique Weizen beer with 5.5% Alc./Vol. By using different types of wheat and barley malts, this amber-colored Weizen is just a little different from the ‘usual.’ Refreshing and thirst-quenching for summer days, with a subtle sweetness from lightly roasted malt.

Tesselaar Kalverliefde

Tesselaar Kalverliefde The hoppy house beer of De Bonte Koe

Specially brewed for Biercafé De Bonte Koe in Purmerend. For years, they had a wonderful ‘Noord-Hollandse Blond,’ originally brewed by SNAB (Stichting Noord-Hollandse Alternatieve Bierbrouwers). However, when SNAB retired in 2024, it seemed like the end of this great collaboration. In consultation with Biercafé De Bonte Koe, the brewers of SNAB, and Tesselaar Family Brewery Diks, it was decided to adopt not only the Ezelenbok (from SNAB) but also this beautiful top-fermented blonde beer with 7.2% Alc./Vol. "At Biercafé De Bonte Koe, hospitality towards our guests and a love for beer are at the heart of what we do. Kalverliefde now gives us the opportunity to share this passion with all our guests!" say Huub & Linda. Kalverliefde is exclusively available at Biercafé De Bonte Koe and in the brewery shop on Texel.
