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”.

Nice dark malt aroma. Flavour has bittersweet malts and is also quite nutty. Hints of cocoa and liquorice in the background.

Aroma is quite fresh and citrusy. Flavour is quite like a spicy, peppery white beer combined with the strong bitter hop finish of an IPA.

Draft at the Zwarte Ruiter, Den Haag. Poured a clear amber with a thin white broken head and some broken lace. The aroma is fresh malty and yeasty. The flavour is crisp, refreshing, malty and with a nice smooth bitterness on the palate.

Draft at Zwarte Ruiter. Pours clear orange amber with a small off white head. Aroma of light malt, light citrus, some yeast, bread, caramel and light fruits. Flavour is light moderate sweet and bitter. Light medium bodied with soft carbonation. Not exciting, but a solid nice and easy drinking beer.

(Bottle, Café de la Gare, Den Haag, 21 Feb 2013) Dark brown colour with dense, beige head. Malty, roasted nose with notes of caramel, coffee and chocolate. Malty, roasted taste with caramel, coffee, chocolate, dark fruit and a generous spicy bitterness in the finish. More than medium body, with a certain sweetness. Interesting mixture of the spicy, fruity caramel character of an abbey dubbel and the roasty bitterness of a porter. Very nice.
