Known for a full range of styles

Where a printing press once ran, brew kettles now simmer: in an early post-war industrial building on Groningen's Kostersgang, a stone's throw from the Grote Markt, the family brewery Martinus started in mid-2015. Albert-Jan Swierstra ran a print shop here for twenty years, his son Martijn brews, and a kitchen hobby has grown into 1,000-litre kettles, six 2,000-litre tanks, a restaurant, a brewing café and a roof terrace facing the Martinitoren.

How we measure this

Two thresholds are at work here:

  • The signature list shows notes that recur in at least 6% of this brewery's beers. A low bar — enough to flag a pattern, not high enough to call it an exclusive trait.
  • The peer comparison below shows only notes where this brewery's coverage differs from similar breweries by at least 20 percentage points. A higher bar — enough to call a real difference, not a nudge.

A note can appear on the signature list without appearing in the peer comparison: it recurs here, but similar breweries do the same thing.
