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”.

Aus der Dose (bbe 20.10.2025) im 2025-01 getrunken. Ein typische Stout mit schöne dunkelbeiger Schaumkrone und was aber positiv überrascht das die 14% perfekt eingebunden sind. Doch in der Nase finde ich diese widerliche Aroma-Assoziation von Rosenblüten-Seife, die alles überdeckt. Igitt! Und auch am Gaumen ist die Rosenblüten-Seife da. Oh nein das kriege ich nicht runter. Weg in den Ausguß - Schade!
