Description
Kompaan had humble beginnings, with just a few recipes and a whole lot of gusto. The brewery was founded by Jeroen and Jasper, two school friends that have known each other longer than not. They shared a zest for life and were ready to put The Hague on the craft beer map. The brewery name is based on this friendship, two companions drinking together. As a modern, young brewery making contemporary, exciting beers, the name is spelt in modern Dutch, as “kompaan”, and not “compaen”.

330 ml can. Pours a very dark brown with full head. Aromas of nutty chocolate, cola, creamy coffee and roasted malts. Flavors of burnt roasted malts, nuts and cola. More like a roasty porter to me…

Can from Jumbo at home. Almost clear golden with very big white head. Grassy, soft orange and peach, bitter weedy hops, marzipan, unripe fruits, sweet malts. Over medium sweet, less bitter. Medium bodied, bit slick oily feel and quite some carbonation. Weird, not really a NEIPA.
