Description
Client brewer in 2012-2013, microbrewing since 2014.

De brouwerij is gestart in mei 2013. In november 2015 kreeg brouwer Jan Kraan van de gemeente toestemming om zijn kleinschalige brouwerij en winkel binnen Bodegraven te verplaatsen van de Overtocht naar de Oud Bodegraafseweg. Uiteindelijk werd deze verhuizing afgeblazen en bleef de brouwerij gevestigd op de Overtocht. In 2017 werd op die locatie iedere twee weken 200 liter bier gebrouwen (ongeveer 50 hl per jaar).

In mei 2021 verhuisde Jan Kraan naar Rekken. Daarmee verhuisde ook de brouwerij van de provincie Zuid-Holland naar de provincie Gelderland. Sinds de verhuizing wordt er alleen nog maar gebrouwen voor de eigen camping Ont Moeten. In 2023 werd er 4.000 liter bier gebrouwen.

Bottle thx to bierkoning @ home. Hazy amber to orange with a huge white head. Smells sweet, herbs, pretty typical triple. Tastes sweet, slightly appelmoes but I might’ve been influenced by the Dutch forums a bit, oak or wood, slightly fruity (peach, orange). It’s decent. Medium body, nice carbo.

Interesting! Very heavy and boozy, sweet, plenty of flavor, quite herbal. Just a bit of oak. Thick mouthfeel. Not bad at all, fun stuff!

Hazy golden colour with thin head. Aroma and flavour have a lot of malts. It's got a surprisingly creamy body and has a tang like a saison or a witbier. Sourish. Interesting.
