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”.

Tap at Arendnest, Amsterdam, 22nd April 2026. Pours an off clear orange. Taste is a bit incipid, not much punch, I’d say it needs more hops

Can. Can't find the name 'Stoere Binck' on the label, nut it's the same can as on the picture. Color: Black, creamy brown head. Aroma: Roasted malt, coffee notes, Jenever notes. Taste: Very nice blend of roasted malt and floral, fruity and herbal Jenever notes. Juniper. Hints of coffee, some caramel, hints of almond, oak wood and liquorice. Earthy notes. Over medium creamy body, below average carbonation. Moderate sweet, over moderate bitterness. Nice long lasting finish. Nice barrel ageing, nice complexity.
