Koninklijke Grolsch N.V. (Dutch pronunciation: [ˈkoːnɪŋkləkə ˈɣrɔls]; "Royal Grolsch"), known simply as Grolsch, is a Dutch brewery founded in 1615 by Willem Neerfeldt in Groenlo. In 1895, the de Groen family bought the brewery. They had started their own brewery in Enschede in the early 19th century and held a significant stake until 2007. Today the main brewery is in Enschede.

It was awarded the Koninklijk (Royal) title in 1995. Grolsch became part of the SABMiller group in 2008.

As part of the agreements made with regulators before Anheuser-Busch InBev was allowed to acquire SABMiller, the company sold Grolsch to Asahi Breweries in 2016.
