BEARDFISH (Dry Stout, 5.5%) is the first in this style we brewed. A dry stout is a workingman’s beer and especially welcome in the colder months of the year. Beardfish is a roasty, malty beer that provides comfort, sustenance and quenches your thirst: A fine reward for when your day of toil is done.

On tap at Cafe Gollem Raamsteeg, Amsterdam on 27th November 2025., and again at Craft and Draft on 28th November. Almost impenetrably black with shallow, pale tan foam and spot lacing. Solid roasty malt aroma. Coffee, dark chocolate and smoky spices in-mouth, and a finish of bitter and coffee-ey roastiness. Smooth mouthfeel and a medium body.
