Brouwerij De Molen (Dutch pronunciation: [ˌbrʌuəˈrɛi də ˈmoːlə(n)]) is a small brewery, distillery and restaurant in Bodegraven, the Netherlands.
[2] In 2010, De Molen was rated tenth in RateBeer's "Best Brewers in the World" list of the top 100 notable breweries.
[4] De Molen's products dominated RateBeer's Best Beers of the Netherlands in both 2008[5] and 2009,[6] occupying 7 and 8 of the first 10 slots in those years.
This typically occurs in the early autumn, with the participation of other brewers, such as Belgium's Picobrouwerij Alvinne and De Struise Brouwers.
[citation needed] Rasputin is an Imperial Stout; after a 2009 trademark-infringement claim was brought by California's North Coast Brewing Company, brewers of a similar beer called Old Rasputin, De Molen changed the name on the American export label to Disputin in reference to the controversy.
