Description
The world of beer is incredibly rich and divers. We want our beers to echo that diversity. We want to pair tradition with innovation,we respect our Belgian roots but we also keep track of evolutions in Belgium and abroad,
Our brewing installation was custom built for us to enable us to go wide in beerstyles en wild in our experiments. From blonde to dark, bitter to sweet, malty to hoppy, fruity or roasted, quaffable or sturdy,…anything goes.
We started our very first ‘brewmonth’ with a pale ale, afterwards we brewed a farmhouse tripel, aWest Coast IPA and a Baltic Porter.
We immediately set the tone for what you can expect from us, a trip around the world in beer. Sometimes quite familiar, other times surprisingly new but always worth the travel.

30/X/25 - 33cl can from Geers (Oostakker), shared @ home, BB: 30/IX/26, batch: DOK272 (2025-1081)
Clear dark brown to black beer, big aery irregular beige head, crackles down quickly, adhesive, leaving some lacing in the glass. Aroma: oooh lovely, old school black IPA! Good strong piny hops, with a solid roast underneath that, some coffee, but more of a charcoal roast, even some campfire smoke. MF: ok carbon, medium body. Taste: oh yes, lovely, good bitterness, hoppy, resinous, piny, good deep roast, a hint of sweet malts. Aftertaste: hoppy, dry, bitter, very strong roast, hoppy, coffee, charcoal.

30 October 2025. At Hal 16 (Dok Brewing). Cheers to the Teamleader crew!
A: hazy yellow, stable, foamy, white head.
A: white onion, hashish, sweat, kiwi, scallion, citrus rind.
T: sweetish grape & kiwi, spicy scallion, onion.
F: piney & peppery hops, dank shallot, bitter grapefruit.
P: medium body, slick-watery texture, average carbonation.
Quite powerful as a single hop, just needed a bit more body.

Belgian hazy? Sample at the roost. Murky burnt gold, ring of white head. Nose has stone fruits and wheat, dried straw. Something jammy. Flavor is either off or non traditional. Chalky, stone fruits, apricot jam. Something odd.

330ml can @ Belgian Beer Geeks Autumn Gathering 2025. First beer of the day. Hazed golden yellow, white head. Nicely bright, exotic hop character, medium to full bodied, pulpy overripe tropical hop, gentle bitter close.. definitely feels like a Soma brew rather than Dok. Good start.

Gushing to good, fluffy, snowwhite head over lively carbonated, faintly veiled golden beer. Spicy, leafy nose with pilsner malts. Very 'beery' nose; nettles, dry green hops. Dry bitter flavour with a lot of non-sweet grains. Finish is dry - almost lean - giving it a tad empty impression. Very light body. Too well carbonated. Good Lager. I wonder - is there any connection to Rafexport?

Clear deep orange blond beer, small creamy dense off-white head, unstable, falls down quickly, a bit adhesive. Aroma: malty, grains, caramel, a hint of roast. MF: ok carbon, medium body. Taste: very malty, caramel, grains, good bitterness, cow fodder, a bit sourish. Aftertaste: nice bitterness, grassy, hay, barnyard, more bitter, slightly metallic, cow fodder, decent stuff!
