Notes

This style of beer was popular in the Netherlands from 1400-1550

4.7 - 7.9%
25 - 35 IBUs
5 - 12.5 SRM
OG 1.050 - 1.080
FG 1.006 - 1.015

The distinctive character of this beer is derived from the use of at 'least' 45 percent oat malt, at least 20 percent wheat malt with pale malt making up the remainder of the grain bill.

According to original Dutch regulations, the malt proportions were 9-6-3: 50% oat, 33% barley and 17% wheat.

Kuyt is a bitter beer, with a dominant hop flavor. Kuyt beers were brewed with hop varieties that are no longer in existence, therefore, for the current Kuyt beers are brewed with varieties like Hallertau Mittelfrüh, Saaz, Tettnang, Spalt, or East Kent Goldings.
